What attracted you to Acre’s Customer Success team?

 

Nikki

I wanted to be a part of a growing start-up with a great product. Acre sounded like an interesting place to work with lots of opportunity to grow as part of a new team.

 

Fatma

I’ve always wanted to take the leap into the start-up world and what better way to do it? With my years of property experience, the transition just made sense. The interview stage where I got to meet the team was the biggest attraction for me. They were knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to.

 

Darrell

I'm interested in property and tech, so Acre caught my attention. The range of responsibilities coupled with the growth of the company presented looked ideal!

 

Richard

For me it’s the challenge of being part of a team who shapes the experience of brokers. And the opportunity to be within a company that has ambitious, but achievable goals.

 

‍

What does a typical day look like for you?

 

Nikki

No day is quite the same, this role definitely keeps you on your feet! I’ll either be handling support, onboarding new firms, on training webinars or writing training content.

 

Fatma

Like Nikki said no day is the same as the next! Some days are quiet and you can just get on with admin tasks and some days you are inundated with questions.

 

Darrell

There’s lots of cross-department meetings and external webinars that we present to our users. I shadow senior team members' work as an example to model my own work on, and have regular touchpoints with the rest of the team to check-in.

 

What do you like most about your role?

 

Nikki

Definitely the client interaction. It’s nice to see the clients benefit from our training and resolve their issues, but it’s also great to just have conversations with brokers.

‍

Fatma

I love being able to interact with people and help them with their needs!

  

Darrell

What I like most about my role is the breadth of responsibility, there’s daily variation and broad ongoing skill development.

  

Richard

Talking to brokers and understanding their issues.

‍

  

Do you work closely with other teams in Acre?

 

Kenza

We do! We work a lot with Product and Business Development. But we touch most teams too - QA, Delivery and UX/Design, as close coordination is actually critical to ensure that we achieve the best outcomes for our clients.

  

Nikki

Yes! A big part of our role is working with other teams. We work with product closely on broker feedback, escalating issues and upcoming releases. We have a great relationship with the Business Development team for onboarding and activating clients.  The design team are also great with helping us with content. Everyone in the firm interlinks somehow or another which is nice!

‍

‍

Is your voice heard in the business?

 

Nikki

The combination of our ideas and feedback from brokers definitely gets heard within Acre! The platform is built for brokers, and as we have the most communication with brokers and we regularly express what could be improved or developed. We also do regular releases and I’ve definitely seen brokers feedback actioned.

 

Fatma

I can see changes being made daily and can see Acre listens to the client's needs.

 

Richard

I feel that our voices are heard within the business due to the experience we each have, and the way we understand the issues around the feedback we are given.

‍

  

What do you think about the training you had when you first joined Acre?

 

Richard

The training I had was tailored to me, which was so great. Now I help tailor training for other new members!

 

Darrell

As a new joiner I've found the training to be very practical - doing it as you learn. The pace is manageable, but with the right amount of challenge. There’s a great mix of independent learning and learning from the team!

 

Fatma

The training was tailored to me. The training plans were looked into by the whole team and adjusted where necessary, to fit my learning style. The team were also a phone call away when needed. The webinars helped me learn the CRM quickly and everyone was really friendly when I asked a million questions!

 

‍

What are the different ways you support brokers?

 

Nikki

We primarily answer questions and escalate any issues. We have onboarding calls and catch-up calls to ensure there is ongoing support for our brokers. We do weekly webinars to go over the basics, more complex scenarios and also new features we may have. We also create training content such as articles and videos.

 

Fatma

I generally assist with support tickets. But overall, the team helps brokers with every step of their Acre journey. From onboarding to weekly webinars, day-to-day support and notifications of new releases within Acre.

 

Richard

The way we support brokers is varied - we are mainly there to assist if they have issues or find bugs. But we also have weekly webinars on different subjects. We help them with their initial onboarding and check with them to ensure they are getting the best out of Acre.

  

‍

Any advice for someone who’s looking to join Acre?

 

Kenza

If you’re looking to deliver real change in an industry that’s in deep need of disruption, then this is the right place for you. It will be challenging but fun, interesting and rewarding. Acre is a fantastic place to learn and grow. All voices are heard and diversity of backgrounds is encouraged as it builds stronger teams. So please apply even if you don’t have prior financial services experience. As long as you’re hungry and eager to learn, there will be a place for you here.

 

Nikki

Don’t be afraid to get stuck in! With a platform that is always developing and improving you will never know everything. Just don’t be afraid to be hands on and take in as much as you can!

 

Fatma

Do it! Working for a start-up definitely has its perks. Being a part of a “family” and being involved in a business’ growth is very special. The Acre family are amazing, friendly and equally hardworking!

 

Darrell

If you want to be part of an ambitious team with personable culture, have a voice and have an interest in fintech, then Acre is the right place for you. It's a great time to join!

 

Richard

To be open and willing to engage. And to never be scared to say if you feel we can improve in an area!

 

Does this sound up your street?

We’ve got a lot of Customer Success roles live at the moment and we’d love to hear from you:

Acre is now Score

What's changed?
What's changing is the name and the way we look. Acre is now trading as Score, with a fresh brand identity to match, but everything you rely on stays exactly where it is. It's still the same mortgage all-in-one platform that advisors, firms, and networks across the country already use to grow their businesses, now presented under a name that brings us in line with the wider ClearScore Group.
Why the new name?
ClearScore acquired Acre earlier this year, and we've carried plenty of momentum into life as part of the Group since. Moving to the Score brand is a natural next step, because it brings us in line with ClearScore and reflects the mission we share, which is to make home buying quicker and easier and to help people take control of their financial lives. As our founder and Managing Director Justus Brown has put it, the day-to-day service you receive won't change at all, and bringing our brand together with the Group simply makes that shared mission clearer.
Has the mission changed?
Not in the slightest! We have always been here to make home buying quicker and easier, taking the pain out of the process so that people can get into their homes sooner, and that is exactly what we will keep doing, with a good deal more behind us now to do it well.
Will the service change?
No, it won't, you'll continue working with the same platform and the same people, and your existing contracts and commercial terms stay exactly as they are, still held with the same legal entity, Acre Platforms Limited. Our Customer Success team will keep looking after you just as they do today.

About ClearScore

Who is ClearScore?
The ClearScore Group is a global leader in financial marketplaces, helping over 27 million people access credit, insurance, and other financial products with greater transparency, fairness, and control. It founded its flagship UK credit marketplace in 2015, has since expanded across four continents and into new verticals such as its DriveScore app, and now works with over 200 partners worldwide. ClearScore is profitable, growing, and on a mission to make personal finance clearer, calmer, and easier to understand, and that mission runs right through its culture, along with a genuine belief in giving people more clarity and control over their money.
How do we fit into ClearScore?
We sit alongside ClearScore's other technology platforms, including D•One, its open banking service for lenders, together powering borrowing and home lending across unsecured credit, auto finance, and now mortgages.

What does the change
unlock?

What does joining ClearScore bring?
Joining ClearScore gives us a great deal more room to grow. With their backing, we can accelerate our technology roadmap and bring new AI-powered features to the platform faster than we could before, and we can enrich what we build with ClearScore's proprietary data and insights, getting cutting-edge technology into the hands of mortgage and protection businesses sooner.
What do brokers and firms stand to gain?
For the brokers and firms who use us, it really comes down to growing faster. Drawing on ClearScore's financial power and its UK user base of over 16 million, we can build the features you ask for more quickly and bring more leads into the ecosystem, which gives brokers, networks, and advisors more opportunities to win new business.
Is the business growing?
We're growing quickly, and so are the firms who build their business on the platform. Since the acquisition, we've seen record numbers of monthly mortgage submissions come through Score, and we've more than doubled our revenue year on year, with growth of over 2.5x. That momentum is showing up in our customers' businesses too: firms on the platform are saving each broker around four days a month on application processing, identifying protection needs for 85% of their mortgage clients, and doubling their client conversion rates. Delivering results like these takes serious engineering and serious investment, and with ClearScore behind us we can keep raising that bar at a pace few others in the market can match.
Why build your business on Score?
Because you'll be choosing a platform that is built to last. A lot of new mortgage tools have appeared lately, and many of them are small, pop-up CRMs put together quickly on basic AI, the kind of thing that can disappear just as fast as it arrived. Score is a very different proposition, we are an established, whole-of-market platform that brokers, networks, and advisors across the country already trust with their businesses, and we are now backed by one of the most advanced and reliable fintech stacks in the industry through ClearScore. A proven platform, real investment, and genuine scale mean we can keep powering ahead of newer, lighter-weight tools and keep building for the long term.

Independence and
ownership

Is Acre being absorbed into ClearScore?
No. We operate as an independent business unit within the ClearScore Group, with our full management team staying exactly where they are, and we'll carry on supporting mortgage and protection firms with the same data-driven platform, now with the reach and scale of the wider Group behind us.
Will our advice-first philosophy change?
No. We have always believed that the best mortgage decisions come from high-quality, personal advice, and it is a belief ClearScore shares. If anything, the direction the market is heading only reinforces it, which is why we will stay a whole-of-market platform focused on helping brokers do their very best work for their clients.

Your data

Is my data safe?
Yes, and nothing about the move to Score changes that. Your data, and your clients' data, is protected by exactly the same contractual obligations and technical safeguards as before, and being part of ClearScore does not give anyone new access to it. We will never introduce your customers to a third party without the right consent, and your clients always keep the rights to their own data. If anything, joining a group whose entire business is built on handling data responsibly, and only ever with the user's permission, raises the bar we hold ourselves to.


The best way to see what Score can do is to book a demo, and we'll walk you through the platform and how it could work for your firm. If you'd rather drop us a line, you can reach our sales team at sales@scoremortgage.com, or send any general enquiries to hello@scoremortgage.com.
