Our Technology teams are made up from a diverse mix of backgrounds, skills, qualifications, and experience. Together, they’re powering our transformation into the digital bank of the future - Developing innovative, reliable and secure services, which are helping our customers take control of how they manage their finances. 

We caught up with one of the newest members of the Mobile Technology team, and also one of the most experienced. We wanted to know about their career journeys so far, what excites them about the work they do, and the culture here at the bank.

Technology is one of the fastest-moving and most exciting parts of our business. We’re using technology to improve the way we do things all across the bank; helping us to be more efficient and effective in our systems and procedures, and above all helping us to offer better services to our customers.

We recently caught up with two members of our Mobile Technology team to hear more about their work, the way they do things, and why they do it.

In this podcast, we’re joined by Leonie and Peter, two of our senior leaders, for a candid conversation about overcoming obstacles. They’ll share some of the hurdles they’ve faced in their own successful careers, and we’ll explore some of the common challenges that you might face as you begin your own career journey.
