Metro Bank expands business with 500 new roles
Metro Bank has announced plans to create 500 new roles in 2017 to support its continued growth.
"This year is already set to be another exciting one for Metro Bank and in order to support our ambitious plans we’re looking for 500 new colleagues to join our growing team."
Metro is scheduled to release its upgraded mobile app, launch a fully integrated online account opening platform and open up to 12 brand new stores this year, with Peterborough, Oxford and Canterbury already confirmed.
New job roles will therefore range from customer-facing roles to head office positions at its central London HQ. The additional roles will boost the bank’s workforce to over 3,000 colleagues.
Craig Donaldson, Chief Executive Officer at Metro Bank commented: “This year is already set to be another exciting one for Metro Bank and in order to support our ambitious plans we’re looking for 500 new colleagues to join our growing team.
"We’re proud to invest in the development of our people, with a dedicated university that supports colleagues in their career progression and promoting over 20% of our workforce last year alone. We’re very much looking forward to welcoming new colleagues who are just as passionate about revolutionising banking as we are.”
