Join us in our mission to provide a fairer, smarter, and more human alternative to traditional banking.
At Starling, we harness cutting-edge technology to offer our customers exceptional service and a sustainable banking experience.

This assessment will include traditional interviews, live scenario exercises, and a pre-prepared presentation.
About the Role:
Your leadership will inspire and motivate your team to deliver outstanding customer service. You will lead by example, demonstrating exceptional customer service skills and sharing innovative solutions to enhance both our operations and customer satisfaction.
Shifts: This position will involve a 12-week rotation covering shifts from 6am to 8:30pm, Monday through Sunday. The initial 6 weeks will be office-based, followed by a shift to a 40% office and 60% home working arrangement.
Responsibilities:
- Foster a positive team culture and encourage collaboration.
- Coach and develop Contact Centre staff to enhance their performance.
- Maintain strong technical knowledge of our products and services.
