About Starling Bank

Starling is the UK’s first and leading digital bank on a mission to fix banking. Our vision is fast technology, fair service, and honest values – all at the tap of a phone, all the time.

We are about giving customers a new way to spend, save and manage their money while taking better care of the planet. As a multi‑award winning bank, we employ over 2,800 people across five offices in London, Cardiff, Dublin, Southampton and Manchester. Since our journey started in 2014, we have surpassed 3.5 million accounts (and four account types!) with 350,000 business customers. We are a fully licensed UK bank, but at the heart we are a tech‑first company, enabling our platform to deliver brilliant products.
