We strive to create an inclusive and diverse workplace where people can be themselves and succeed. \nOur story \nOakNorth Bank was built on the foundations of frustrations with old-school banking. In 2005, when our founders tried to get capital for their data analytics company, the computer said ‘no’. Unfortunately, all major banks in the UK were using the same computer – and it was broken.  \nWhy was it so difficult for a profitable business with impressive cashflow, retained clients, and clear commercial success to get a loan?  \nThe industry was backward-looking and too focused on historic financials, rather than future potential. \nSo, what if there was a bank, founded by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs? One that offered a dramatically better borrowing experience for businesses? \nNo more what ifs, OakNorth Bank exists.  \n\n\nFor more information regarding our Privacy Policy and practices, please visit: https://www.oaknorth.com/privacy-policy \n\n#Salary and compensation\n No salary data published by company so we estimated salary based on similar jobs related to Analyst, Design, SaaS, macOS, React, Testing, DevOps, Cloud and Digital Nomad jobs that are similar:\n\n $60,000 — $120,000/year\n
