Description 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.

The Partner will ensure leaders possess both the objective-focused skillset (the 'what' of leadership, e.g., objective setting, performance management) and the EQ/psychological safety mindset (the 'how') required to drive high performance and growth for all colleagues. This role is essential for creating a consistent "golden thread" across all leadership training, from first-line managers up to the C-Suite. Key Responsibilities Programme Design and Delivery: Extensive People Programme design and delivery preferably from a large scale professional environment (e.g. FMCG, Tech, Banking, Retail) Co-design, implement, and enhance leadership development initiatives that drives Starling's leaders to be world-class leaders Team Effectiveness and Interventions: Deploy diagnostic tools to assess the alignment, and performance of teams.
