Customer Support Team Leader

We're Atom bank

The bank that's on a mission to make finance faster, simpler and way more human.

We've ditched the stuffy banking model to build something that actually works for our customers, whenever and wherever they need us.

To make this happen, we're looking for like-minded people who can help us reach our goals and think differently.

If you're ready to build the future of banking, we'd love to meet you.

What will your 'typical' day look like? Different that's for sure

At Atom, Operations isn't just a department; it's our beating heart. It's where the magic happens, where we connect with our customers, and where we prove that banking can be better.
