ASC Finance for Business

Build a Commercial Finance Business Arranging Funding from £100,000 to £20 Million

ASC Finance for Business (ASC) offers the opportunity to build your own commercial finance consultancy within an exclusive protected territory, backed by more than 50 years of experience and an established national network.

ASC helps UK businesses, property investors and entrepreneurs secure tailored funding from £100,000 to £20 million across business finance, property finance and specialist finance.

Independent Advice. Local Relationships. National Strength.

ASC Regional Directors operate their own businesses while benefiting from the credibility, systems and resources of an established national brand.

Key advantages include:

• Your own exclusive territory
• An independent approach using a wide panel of trusted funders
• Opportunities across business, property and specialist finance
• Scope to develop long-term relationships with clients and professional introducers
• Flexible diary and independence to grow your own business
• Established systems, marketing resources and head office support

Rather than being tied to one lender, ASC can explore different funding options according to each client's circumstances.

More Than 50 Years in Commercial Finance

ASC has been helping UK businesses secure funding for over five decades.

The business is a member of the National Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (NACFB) and won Commercial Broker Network of the Year at the NACFB Commercial Broker Awards 2024.

ASC was also shortlisted for Commercial Mortgage Broker of the Year (4+ brokers) in the 2026 NACFB Commercial Broker Awards.

Training Built Around Your Experience

Initial training typically takes 4–6 weeks and is tailored to the franchisee's existing knowledge and development needs.

Training covers business finance, lender negotiations, the client journey, marketing, promotion and PR, alongside practical experience within an established ASC office.

Support continues through ongoing training at no additional charge, Regional Directors' conferences, senior management visits and access to head office expertise across technical, marketing and IT matters.

Previous commercial finance experience can be beneficial but isn't essential.

Who Is ASC Looking For?

Strong candidates are commercially minded, self-motivated and professional, with the ability to build trusted relationships and develop business through networking and referrals.

The role suits people who enjoy solving commercial problems, managing their own diary and building a long-term client and introducer network.
