A career with excellent earnings potential and a company that offers you ownership.

These sound like items on an employment wish list. For some, that’s all they are but not at Alliance Financing Group - we can help turn these wishes into reality for you. 

With its roots tracing back to 1989, Alliance is an established leasing and asset-based financing solutions provider with a proven, effective model for delivering its financing products and services to Canadian and US business customers. The majority of Alliance’s transaction flow comes from customized “vendor programs” with national, regional or local equipment and machinery vendors.

Alliance’s vendor programs, technology and go-to-market strategy have been vetted and validated by several well known Canadian equipment/distribution companies including Ingram Micro Canada*, FEDEX Canada, IBM Canada, Gateway Canada, Acklands-Grainger Inc., ACCPAC Canada and many others. This has led to an increase in Alliance’s competitiveness and brand awareness in the business marketplace - resulting in a strong brand identity within the vendor community. The sales cycle for establishing additional vendor programs is now decreasing as Alliance can leverage its experience, its technologies and its reputation for creating successful customized vendor programs.  

Alliance is a public company (TSX Venture: symbol AFG), with its head office in located in Vaughan Ontario, sales offices in Mississauga Ontario, London Ontario and Halifax Nova Scotia and a sales/technology office in St. Catharines Ontario. Alliance currently has 17 employees and associates.

Our industry is currently positioned for tremendous growth in North America. A great majority of businesses (as high as 80% according to the United States Equipment Leasing Association “ELA”) currently use lease financing as an alternative to the restrictive financing solutions offered through conventional channels.

According to the ELA, “More companies, particularly small companies, acquire new productive equipment through leases than through loans. Of the $697 billion spent by business on productive assets in 2001, $216 billion, or 31 percent, was acquired by American businesses through leasing. In 2002, that figure is estimated at $204 billion. The projected 2003 volume is $208 billion”. That number continues to increase as businesses become more aware of the benefits of leasing.

Our services complement traditional bank based lending by providing an additional form of credit. Our clients include Canadian and U.S. businesses of all types – established, younger and even start-ups; helping them finance the assets they need to operate their businesses profitably. We also offer lease financing to school boards, universities, colleges, hospitals and all levels of government.

At Alliance Financing Group, we partner with a national network of Independent Associates to promote our products and services. By offering a comprehensive management and sales training program, together with full back office support, we can ensure the quality and professionalism of our partners in the field. We want to be part of the solution and that just makes good business sense for our industry, our business and our customers. We are presently seeking qualified Associates in many areas of Canada.
