Atom Bank announced the official opening of its new home at Newcastle.
The transition from her previous home to Durham to the historic patterns shop marks a new era for the digital bank and its nearly 600 employees, reinforcing its commitment to the northeast and creating important opportunities for local talents, including nearly 30 open jobs.
The relocation is a strategic step that is aligned with the rapid development of Atom and the future vision. The new office, an investment of many millions of pounds, will serve as a hub for innovation and cooperation, supporting Atom’s unique working week model and its mission to redefine modern banking.
The move also marks Atom’s commitment to the region, as the digital bank continues to support local initiatives and educational partnerships through its early career program. The program focuses on enhancing social mobility and access to opportunities in the northeast.
Includes the Futures Atom Futures Fund, which provides financial support to students from low -income background and those who care, helping them with university applications and transitions and two AMI women in technology scholarships with Durham University.
In addition, ATOM offers a postgraduate program, with roles in all departments, such as funding, technology and the wider business for the development of future leaders of the company.
Mark Mullen, CEO of ATOM Bank, said:
“Moving to the patterns shop is not just a change of management, it is a bold statement about our future and our faith in the northeast, we are investing in a place that celebrates the industrial past of our region, while providing a modern, flexible and inspirational home.
CLLR Karen Kilgour, leader of Newcastle Municipal Council, said:
“The announcement of the arrival of Atom Bank in the shop restored with love was extremely welcome news and it is fantastic to see that their move is coming now to arrive.
These are hundreds of good jobs that are transferred to the heart of our city, in a location full of history and legacy with a fascinating new chapter in front of it.
It is brilliant to see a company that is rooted in the northeast to thrive with its expansion to Newcastle, bringing jobs, growth and opportunity to our city and our communities. “
