Proudly recognised as the UK's best high-street banking provider for customer service, we make a meaningful difference to the lives of customers, communities, and broader society.
As a branch or contact centre colleague, you’ll be part of a team that is leading the way in delivering the levels of service that matter most to our customers.

Virgin Money is now part of Nationwide
Nationwide acquired Virgin Money in October 2024. Virgin Money continues to serve customers on the high street, and there will be a phased and considered integration over the coming years.
You’ll be employed by Nationwide from day one, delivering real impact and benefitting from a highly competitive range of benefits. We’re a workplace where you’re rewarded, recognised and celebrated.
If we receive a high volume of relevant applications, we may close the advert earlier than the advertised date, so please apply as soon as you can.
Your principal role will be welcoming our valued customers to the branch and helping them to use our digital services, as well as educating them to understand the benefits that these services bring.
Additionally, you’ll be resolving any queries customers may have with their banking and having conversations to understand the needs of customers. This will allow you to propose the best solutions for each individual from our broad range of products and services.
Furthermore, you’ll be working with colleagues across our branches and Digital Experience Centre to ensure our customers always have the right person to speak to if and when they need expert advice.
The requirements for this role are:
Experience in working in a customer service environment, and a desire to deliver simply brilliant experiences for our customers
Natural curiosity to help you offer the best solutions for our customers
Great communication skills with a natural ability to engage and build rapport with customers and colleagues
A flexible and positive approach to meet customer needs and business demands
Drive and enthusiasm to achieve team goals with pace
A keen interest in all things digital, with a desire to keep up to date with new technologies
Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:
Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers’ shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind
Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think – we’re honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand
Push for better - We don’t settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development
Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes
You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.
There are all sorts of employee benefits available at Nationwide, including:
25 days holiday, pro rata
Access to private medical insurance
A highly competitive pension to help you build a strong foundation for retirement
Access to an annual performance-related bonus
Training and development to help you progress your career
A great selection of additional benefits through our salary sacrifice scheme
Life assurance to provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones in the event of your death

We forge our own path at Nationwide.
As a mutual, we’re owned by our members - those customers who bank, save or have a mortgage with us. We challenge the financial sector status quo. We don’t see customers as the engine of our own profit. We share our profits with them and put their needs first. Always there when they need us. Supporting them and their lives.
If you’re inspired by fairer finances, passionate about making a meaningful impact, and truly care about our customers, you’re one of us.
At Nationwide, you are challenged to grow and rewarded for doing so. Valued. Recognised. Inspired to be your best. As a community, we want our working lives to count. As a team, we celebrate what we achieve. As a standard-setter, we work for the good of customers, communities, and broader society.
We are purpose-driven. Uncompromisingly customer. Unstoppably Nationwide.
