Job Summary
Midtown Manhattan NY In-Person Performance-Based
Theres a scene in The Pursuit of Happyness where Chris Gardner is sitting on the floor of a bathroom with his son dead broke and he says Dont ever let somebody tell you that you cant do something.
He wasnt talking about money. He was talking about belief. About deciding that where you are right now is not where youre going to stay.
This role is for people who think that way.
This Is More Than a Job it an Opportunity for Career
Most roles give you a salary a desk and a ceiling.
This one gives you something harder to find: a craft. The ability to walk into a conversation with a stranger understand what they need earn their trust and create a solution that genuinely helps their business keep moving forward.
That skill doesnt expire. It doesnt get automated. And once you have it nobody can take it from you.
The people who build careers here dont just make more money. They become sharper. More confident. More composed under pressure. They learn how to listen how to lead a conversation and how to build relationships that last years not just close a deal and disappear.
This role changes you. Professionally and personally.
The Company
Premium Merchant Funding is the largest broker in our industry with 26 offices across 4 countries 100 lender partners and 30 products. We help small business owners access capital when traditional banks move too slowly or say no.
These are real people running real businesses dealing with payroll inventory cash flow and pressure every single day. When you help them you feel it. Thats what makes this work meaningful beyond the commission.
The Location
This role is in-person in the heart of Midtown Manhattan steps from Times Square around the corner from Grand Central and in the middle of the most competitive business environment in the world.
The energy in this office matches the city outside it. Fast-moving high-standards and built for people who want to be surrounded by others who push them.
This is not a remote role. This not a part time role. What gets built here gets built in the room.
The Long Game: Your Book of Business
Heres what separates this career from every other sales role youll come across.
In most sales jobs every month starts at zero. You grind you close and then you start over.
Not here.
At PMF the goal from day one is to build a book of business a portfolio of clients who come back to you because of the relationship you built with them. Return clients. Referrals. Business owners who call you when they need funding because they trust you specifically.
Over time that book becomes an asset. It creates momentum that builds on itself. And it gives you something most salespeople never have longevity and stability in a performance role.
This is a career you can grow for years. The longer you stay the stronger it gets.
The Role
As a Business Development Trainee you will:
- Have real conversations with small business owners every day
- Build trust and identify what clients genuinely need
- Generate funding applications and manage your pipeline

No prior experience required. We train the skill. You bring the drive.
Who This Is For
This role is built for people at a turning point.
Maybe you just graduated and youre looking at the job market thinking there has to be something better than an entry-level desk job that caps out at $55K.
Maybe youre in D2D auto insurance or solar and youre good at what you do but youve outgrown the ceiling.
Maybe youre watching AI reshape the industry youre in and youre thinking I need to build something that compounds not something that expires.
