Who are Starling Bank

We’re Starling Bank (aka the Best British Bank 2018, 2019 and 2020). Through our app and online banking platform, we’re helping nearly 1 million customers take control of their money like never before. Quicker, easier and distinctly better. We offer various accounts – personal, joint, business, euro and connected – each of which can be managed from your mobile or desktop.

Life at

Starling Bank

Culture overview

We’re growing fast – and no two days here at Starling are quite the same. We care about getting stuff done, not process, and our culture is decidedly entrepreneurial in spirit (you’ll be encouraged to pitch your ideas, however big or bold!). It’s a fast-paced, exciting and creative place to work where there’s plenty of collaboration and ownership of your own projects. Lots of companies talk about transparency – but it’s something we really care about. We communicate and collaborate through Slack, including a channel dedicated to updates from our founder Anne and the leadership team. It’s important to us there’s more to life here than just work, so get to know your colleagues at socials, cheese & wine nights or learning lunches.
