⭐Our People team

We are looking for a brilliant, commercial People Partner to join our current partnering team.

We foster a culture that centers on our customers, combining the best of tech with the best of banking. We empower a diverse, high-performing, innovative, and agile workforce to do the most impactful work of their careers. Scaling this culture and way of working is an ambitious task, but it’s a mission we’re committed to.
