Our vision is to create a banking industry that serves everyone - by developing best-in-class proprietary technology, offering an exceptional customer experience, and establishing a strong, sustainable business.
Our five core values – Listen, Keep It Simple, Do The Right Thing, Own It, and Aim for Greatness – are at the heart of everything we do, guiding our strategy and shaping our culture. We're a branchless, largely paperless bank, committed to responsible banking, sustainability, and fostering an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
Our Customer Service team is at the core of our success - and as a Customer Service Team Leader you will inspire and motivate your team to give the best service to our customers. You will lead from the front, showcasing your finely tuned customer service skills on a daily basis. Not only that, we’ll look to you to share solutions that will make your colleague’s and your customer’s lives better.
Here at Starling we truly put our customers first - and we want to hire leaders who are driven to do the same!
The shifts:
We want our customers to be able to manage their money 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whenever they need us, we will be there.
Evenings - 30 hours a week (8.5 hour shift (1 hour lunch) with 12 shifts over the three weeks so average of 4 shifts of 7.5 hours worked for a 30 hour average), 17:00 - 01:30 Monday to Sunday
The recruitment process:
Interviewing is a two way process and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you! Our interviews are conversational and we want to get the best from you, so come with questions and be curious.
Once we have reviewed your application we will be in touch to let you know if we are progressing your application further or not. If progressed, we will then invite you to book a call with someone from our talent acquisition team or record a video.
After the call/video, if the role seems like the right fit, we will invite you for an interview with a Leader from our Customer Services team. They will be able to give you even more insight into the role and life at Starling and talk to you about your experience and love of customer service! The interview will be made up of Q&A questions, role play activity and a written communication exercise.

Hello, we’re Starling.
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 by Starling, using the proprietary technology platform that it uses to power our own bank.
