Introduction

At Brand New Day we like to do things differently. We’re definitely not boring or bureaucratic, like some other banks or insurers. We’re not traditional bankers, but entrepreneurs. We’re building the best bank for long-term consumers’ savings and investments. To do that, we need the best people. We know this sounds like a marketing story. It isn’t. We believe in doing things our way and challenging the status quo. Still not convinced? Come in for a coffee with our IT director. Or speak to the teams and see for yourself!

The team

We have just launched our very first Brand New Day app. This is all very exciting, but of course our hands are already itching to improve and expand it.
