Interim Senior Legal Counsel - SBL Legal

Banking was broken – so we decided to fix it. The vision? Fast technology, fair service and honest values. All at the tap of a phone, all the time. We built Britain's first digital bank. One hard-won banking licence later, we set about giving people a new way to spend, save and manage their money (and take better care of the planet, too). We're changing banking for good. Back then, we were obsessed with unravelling the knotty world of finance and solving people's problems rather than selling them stuff. We still are.

Since then, we've grown. A lot. Over four million accounts (and four account types!). A team of thousands. Headquartered in London with offices in Cardiff, Dublin, Manchester and Southampton. Seven years voted Which? Recommended Provider and Britain's Best Banking Brand. Still zero branches. Our culture is open, inclusive and focused on solving real customer problems, with an emphasis on doing the right thing, even when it's not always the easy thing. From our approach to working together and sustainability to how we build our products, our decisions need to make the world – and Starling – a better place to be. Everyone at Starling is essential to our mission, which is really quite simple: to solve our customer's problems – and build the best bank in the world!

And now we're providing Starling to other banks, via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) proposition through our subsidiary Engine, using the proprietary technology platform that it uses to power our own bank.

Culture & Work Environment:

We're on a mission to radically reshape banking – and that starts with our brilliant team. We know that our bank is only as good as the people who build it. From customer support and engineering to marketing and business development, we're proud to bring together people of all backgrounds and experiences who love working together to solve problems.

Creativity and collaboration: 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.

Great tech: As you'd expect from a technology company, we'll make sure you have all the tools you need to get your job done – and that they're the very best in the business. We work on MacBooks and you'll receive anything else you might need on request.

An open approach: 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 the leadership team.
