Banking – but fairer, more rewarding, and for the good of society

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.

What you’ll be doing

You’ll need to be a team player with the ability to work closely with all your branch colleagues.

Day-to-day, you’ll be supporting and working alongside your Cluster/Branch Manager to ensure the smooth running of the branch and helping to achieve the best outcomes for both our customers and your team. Acting as a role model, most of your time will be spent on the shop floor, where you will inspire and motivate your team to provide an excellent service. Throughout all this, you’ll be investing time in coaching and developing your team to a high standard.

This role will require working with a high level of autonomy and you’ll be juggling several different priorities at any one time.

About you

For this role, we require:

• Strong team management and leadership capabilities that will shine through and motivate the team around you
• Proven success in a Retail branch environment with the ability to work and deliver results in line with expectations
• A clear and methodical approach, dealing well with complex issues
• A sound knowledge of bank policies and procedures, and a good understanding of our range of products/services
• A genuine passion for providing exceptional customer service

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.
