Rosie Tanner
Broker Manager
I have been working within financial services for the past 6 years and spent 4 years prior to this at BMW.
Get comfortable out of your comfort zone. I’ve grown through different types of roles at lending businesses, and I believe there’s always opportunity there if you are determined enough.
It has to be working with our wonderful brokers, even if it’s jumping on the phone for a catch up – I love feeling like I’m making a difference, especially in the current climate.
I’m secretly a major sustainable fashion geek. I love seeing how the major designer’s attitude are starting to change towards sustainability. I even have my own small homemade clothing brand.
I’m a family girl at heart. Nothing beats chucking on a pair of wellies and taking the dogs for a walk in the countryside (and stopping at a pub on the way home!)
Most definitely Instagram!
I was brought up surrounded by Manchester United fans (which has continued now the office is full of them too) – I’d be in trouble if I answered this with any other team.
Favourite actor and film has to be Leo Dicaprio & Wolf Of Wall Street.
Christopher Carey
Broker ACCOUNT MANAGER
My last job in South Africa was for a company called SA Home Loans, where we offered a non-bank mortgage product, I worked there for 8 years. I have been with Capify for just under 2 years, so collectively I have just under 10 years finance experience.
Persistence beats resistance. I have recently learned the value of this and can see the benefits of being front of mind, especially in this competitive industry
No two applications are ever the same, so this role is a constant learning experience. I would have to say that being able to provide Capital to a business in need is very rewarding.
I am a bit of a bush baby (being South African), I love a good Safari and spending time in the wild.
Spending time with my 2 boys playing outside
I enjoy the English Premier League and support Liverpool FC
Movie: Braveheart
Actor : Keanu Reeves

Capify's broker buy rates scheme
How it works
With our Broker Buy Rate Scheme, you have the ability to choose your earnings!
If you sell at a higher rate, you could earn up to 8% commission. Alternatively, you can offer your clients a lower and more competitive rate and take slightly less for yourself. We want to give you the opportunity to control the price because you understand your clients better than anyone. This new scheme can be used on our and products and is available across all credit grades.
Calculator
We’ve created a simple calculator, in which you can input data to find out how different rates will affect the amount of commission you receive.
Example
You have a client who is looking for funding of £40,000. Upon receiving the offer and approval from Capify, the following information will be confirmed;
The Credit Grade
The Term
The Buy Rate
The below side by side comparisons show the difference between the broker choosing to take 5% commission vs 8% commission.
