About Skipton
Our story began in 1853 in Skipton, North Yorkshire. Today, you'll find us across England and Scotland, from Aberdeen to Plymouth.
We help over a million members put down roots, save for what matters, and feel good about their money. As a mutual, they own us, so everything we do is for them. You'll feel that same fairness and purpose in how all 2,500 of our colleagues work together, too.

We talk and we listen to each other. And we make decisions as a team. That way, you get all the support you need to do work that works for everyone. We also value what everyone brings to Skipton. And we create a fair place where you can be yourself. Our colleague networks play a big role in this. They connect people with similar life experiences and make our workplace warm, friendly, inclusive and welcoming.
Hybrid Working
We work in a hybrid way, balancing flexibility with collaboration. For this role, you'll typically spend three days a week in our Skipton office, with the remaining two days working from home.
Wellbeing
Lots of organisations talk about wellbeing, but they don't always back it up. As a mutual, we put people first. And that includes the people who work here. So, when we say we care about your wellbeing, we mean it.
Wellbeing isn't just one thing. It's about feeling good, having energy and being able to be yourself and perform at your best. That's why we offer help for your mental and physical health across five key areas.
What's more, it's help that you can actually use too, not just read about.
