Who are we

At mcl UAE, we help small and medium-sized businesses access the capital they need to grow quickly, clearly, and with care. Since launching mcl in 2018, we've supported thousands of SMEs across the UK, and we're not slowing down.

In the UAE, our products include invoice financing, POS financing and receivables-based funding. We are expanding our footprint and need someone on the ground who can help drive growth, build relationships, and support day-to-day activity as the business scales.

We believe finance should work better for the people building our economy. That means fewer hurdles, faster answers, and support that feels human, not transactional. We back ambition with real funding, smart tools, and a team that gets what running a business really takes.

Our mission

To reshape SME finance and level the playing field funding that's fast, fair, and fits for the businesses of the future.
