Who we are - Skipton Building Society Branch

Together we all get on

The UK’s fourth largest building society, and an innovator in the field of mortgage and investment products, we have over 860,000 customers, 8000 employees and more than 90 branches across the country, from Aberdeen to Plymouth.

Being a mutual organisation, we operate in the interests of our members, not shareholders. Our group assets, which currently stand at around £10billion, are safeguarded by a board of directors, so that current and future members will have access to cheaper mortgages and higher rates of interest for their savings.

Our ongoing success, and everything we do, is driven by the core values which are at the heart of our business: enthusiasm, fairness, ownership and trust. Values which reflect the attitudes and way of working everyone here displays on a daily basis, and which are key to the delivery of the outstanding level of personal service we offer our customers.

As for our progressive and forward-looking culture, it can be defined by something that we call ‘Famous’. In short, it’s our belief that by ‘working smarter’ we’ll be ‘financially strong’ and make this ‘a great place to work’. This, in turn will make our ‘customers love us’.

For you, being part of a large and ambitious organisation like ours, that’s continuing to grow, means there’ll be the chance to build a rewarding, long-term career and take advantage of many opportunities for both personal and professional development.

We are also committed to the aims of the Financial Services Authority’s 'Treating Customers Fairly' objective. Consistently delivering a fair outcome to our customers is central to our culture - which means we work hard to consistently provide financial products and services that suit customer needs, give information in plain language and make every effort to deliver on our promises.
