HQ Function

Serves as a key operational and administrative hub for Virgin Money UK, overseeing strategic banking operations, customer service management, and corporate functions that previously supported Yorkshire Bank.

Notable Features:

Modern office facilities designed to support large-scale banking operations and a significant workforce. Yorkshire Bank's historical Leeds HQ was a landmark building in the city.

Work Culture:

As part of Virgin Money UK, the work culture emphasizes customer-centricity, innovation, and a dynamic approach to financial services, building on the community focus of Yorkshire Bank.

HQ Significance:

The current Virgin Money HQs are central to its UK-wide operations, managing the integrated services of former Yorkshire Bank, Clydesdale Bank, and Virgin Money. The historical Leeds office was vital to Yorkshire Bank's regional identity and economic contribution.

Values Reflected in HQ: The current HQs reflect Virgin Money's values of making 'everyone happier about money', focusing on digital innovation, customer experience, and responsible banking, which absorb the community trust established by Yorkshire Bank.

Location:

Yorkshire Bank, and subsequently Virgin Money UK plc, primarily operates within the United Kingdom. Its focus is on providing retail and business banking services to UK customers. While it does not have an extensive international branch network, it supports UK customers with international banking needs and engages with global financial markets as necessary for its operations. The announced acquisition by Nationwide Building Society will maintain this UK focus.
