Fast-expanding digital bank Starling is creating a further 150 jobs in Cardiff, which will take its workforce in the city to 1,200. The fintech venture, which now has three million customers in the UK and is likely to float on the London Stock Exchange over the next two years, originally committed to creating 400 jobs when unveiling its office investment in the city– at Brunel House– back in 2020.
It is creating mainly operational roles including those in customer service, customer acquisition, operations support, collections and financial crime. It is also looking to appoint tech engineers and data scientists. Starting salaries in operations are £24,500.
