What the notice says
The British Business Bank investment business deploys government-backed capital through fund of funds investment products, acting as both a General and Limited Partner and direct/co-investment programmes to improve access to finance for smaller UK businesses. The Investments Business includes 115 front office full time equivalents (FTE) and a wider set of functions require the ability to view the information held within its Contact and Pipeline management solution (circa 40 users).
The Bank has also established the British Growth Partnership within the investments business, to crowd in long-term institutional capital such as UK Pension Funds into high-growth UK companies.
Our role is to attract additional private-sector investment into underserved parts of the market, particularly early-stage, high-growth, and regionally distributed businesses, helping firms start, scale, and remain in the UK while addressing structural funding gaps in the SME finance ecosystem.
