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. Five 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!

The Risk and Controls Manager will bring robust Risk Management experience within the banking sector (first or second line), ideally with experience managing 1LoD risk for a multinational organisation. You must have a proven record of risk governance and control oversight. Experience gained in People function is an advantage, as is the ability to manage Health & Safety risk frameworks.

Advisory & Culture: Act as a key contributor to the ongoing development of a risk-aware culture within the 1LoD. Work with Risk and Control owners by providing advice, challenge, and input on key decisions, enabling them to clearly articulate and manage their risk profile. Policy & Emerging Risk: Engage with 2LoD, 3LoD, and other key stakeholders on the development of policy, socialising it within the 1LoD, and overseeing embedding and adherence. Collaborate with the People and Facilities Management Leadership Team to scan for emerging risks. Operational Risk Management RCSA: Support the Risk Controls Self Assessment (RCSA) process. Testing & Assurance: Oversee the creation and execution of 1LoD Control testing plans and challenge the risk and control environment to drive improvements.

Citizens UK Citizens UK is the UK s biggest, most diverse and most effective people-powered alliance. We bring communities and local organisations together to work on issues that matter; from campaigning for zebra crossings on dangerous roads, to reforming the immigration system, to the Living Wage campaign. We have a track record of winning change through hundreds of local and national campaigns. We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them. We believe that through developing local leaders, we can drive nationwide change and create community-led solutions to big and small problems. Citizens UK has played a pioneering role in introducing and developing community sponsorship of refugees in the UK. In response to the Syrian refugee crisis in 2015, we campaigned successfully for the introduction of community sponsorship in the UK. Citizens UK was then instrumental in proving the model can work in the UK and through training, advocacy, and coordination, we have helped hundreds of local groups welcome thousands of refugee families. In 2022, Citizens UK expanded its work by launching the Communities for Ukraine programme, matching Ukrainian refugees with UK hosts and most recently has run Communities for Afghans, resettling dozens of refugees. Throughout, it has combined grassroots organising with national advocacy to build a sustainable, community-led model of refugee resettlement. In 2025, we campaigned successfully to persuade the Government to introduce named sponsorship , giving communities greater choice in who they would sponsor. This creates a huge opportunity to grow community sponsorship and to enable UK civil society to step up and honour our proud tradition of offering sanctuary. Head of Community Sponsorship Role This is a rare opportunity to lead Citizens UK s community sponsorship campaign and help build the movement that will be at the heart of a community-led welcome.

We will speed up the discovery of new methods of early disease detection, and the evaluation of new diagnostic tools, to helpidentifyand treat diseases early,when outcomes are usually better. With over 2.5M volunteers across the UK, we're now the world's biggest health research programme of its kind, and our volunteer group is also more diverse than other, similar health research programmes. Technology and data are central to our mission.Our systems power web sites, clinics across the UK,secureanalyticsand researchsystems,pipelines thatprocesshighly sensitivehealthand geneticdata, and we are continuing to grow our engineering capability to support this ambition. We are looking for an experienced Director of Engineering to lead and scale our Software and Data Engineering organisation. This is a rare opportunity to apply modern, cloud-native engineering at national scale to a mission that genuinely improves lives. This is a Senior Leadership role reporting to the CTO, where you will be accountable for scaling and strengthening software and data engineering across Our Future Health. The role exists to ensure we can deliver predictably at scale, operate highly reliable, secure systems, and grow a healthy, high-performing engineering organisation as the team scales significantly from 50 engineers.

This is Tech for Good at scale. We work in a multi disciplinary way, bringing engineering together not just with design and product but also with science, ethics, security and clinical expertise. We're building for the long term, to power health research for decades to come. And we're not short of technology challenges to inspire engineers and engineering leaders: we'll be scaling data and genomics processing into the hundreds of petabytes, building systems to dramatically increase clinical trials participation in the UK, providing health insights to millions of people in partnership with the NHS, maintaining a strong cybersecurity and privacy posture and continuing to support the growth of what will be the largest, most diverse cohort of volunteers who have ever participated in health research.
