"Don't ever let somebody tell you you can't do something. Not even me. You got a dream, you protect it." Will Smith, The Pursuit of HappynessThe Opportunity
PMF is the largest broker in the alternative lending industry, headquartered on Wall Street. We have grown into an organization of 26 offices across 4 countries, all based on a system of building brokers into managers.
Business owners across the country are under immense pressure right now to make payroll, expand, or even stay afloat because the banks are moving too slow or just flat out telling them no. With 30 products and services, PMF has become a one stop shop for their capital needs.
Right now PMF is pushing 7 billions in funding while other industries are cutting back. Our leads are up 200% and we are growing the team to meet demand. This is a rare chance to join the Fresh Meadows, Queens office of Premium Merchant Funding. Our Fresh Meadows office runs as a small, elite unit. In 2025 the office paid out over $10 Million in broker fees to a team of 25-30 agents. Our goal is to double that in 2026.
- No more hour-plus commute into the city. Our office puts you five minutes from home in Fresh Meadows, Queens, right by St. John's University
- A desk, your own business number, email, and warm leads to build your own brand
- Mentorship by top performers to help you establish the skills, mindset, and first accounts in your book of business needed for a long term career with PMF
We make working as a broker straightforward. You will focus on generating applications by building relationships with American business owners, who will become accounts in your book of business. The first year is the grind. It is supposed to be. It takes 200 no's to get the first yes, but 80 percent of people who make it through year one stay for the next 5 years. That is why every one of our 26 office managers started in this exact role.
Year 1 OTE: $82,000 to $125,000 Year 2 OTE: $200,000 to $350,000
We recruit for mindset over skill set, and these three profiles consistently rise to the top here:
Veterans and Athletes: a disciplined mindset, the daily routine, and the ability to hold yourself accountable are the same traits that build top performers and office managers here.
College Grads in Greek Life or Club Leadership: the confidence to talk numbers with business owners. Many of our desk managers and closers come from this background. If you're at St. John's, you're already next door, close enough to start your career here without relocating or commuting into the city first.
Previous Sales Experience: the art of selling is already there but the commission structure at a previous role may not have reflected the skill. At PMF representatives earn 20 to 40 percent on every funded deal and every client is theirs for the length of their time with the company. No more one-time sales.Here client comes back and brings others with them. Many of the top performers and desk managers at PMF come from this profile.
Bilingual candidates have a real edge here. Fresh Meadows is one of the most diverse corners of Queens, and agents who speak the language of the business owners they're building relationships with, whether that's Chinese, Spanish, Korean, Arabic, Russian, or anything in between, open doors a script alone can't.
