Tandem Bank, the UK’s greener digital bank, has been recognised for the second year in a row in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work list, in the Big Organisation category. This annual nationwide survey celebrates the UK’s top employers based on employee feedback and wellbeing.
The last year saw Tandem ramp up its focus on culture, learning and employee voice. Its ‘One Bank’ approach helped align people and priorities across teams and locations, while key initiatives enhanced collaboration and inclusivity.
In March, Tandem launched a dedicated Women in Leadership week, celebrating the bank’s female leaders, coinciding with International Women’s Day. The bank’s apprenticeship programme also grew by60%, supporting career development and skills growth across the business.

Tandem’s charity work remains rooted in community. Colleagues selected causes close to home and together volunteered over 138,000 minutes in 2024/25 for charities including The Boathouse Youth, The Felix Project, Foundation 92 and the Salvation Army. Every colleague receives two paid volunteering days to support their offices local charity and in return receives additional time off as a reward for giving back to their communities.
With a key focus on employee health and wellbeing, Tandem offers resources around mental health first aiders, female menstrual health and menopause champions, volunteering and greener living, with incentives such as an EV salary sacrifice scheme and energy bill credits or supermarket vouchers for standout contributors.
