About
Birmingham Bank is a SME focused lender based in Birmingham who are challenging the way Banking is done. They are dedicated to providing Better Banking for their customers. From savings products to customised borrowing solutions and specialised Buy to Let lending, Birmingham Bank are supporting their customers on their journey to success.
The Challenge
After significant investment, Birmingham Bank was ready to embark on a substantial expansion phase. The bank recognised that attracting top-tier talent would be both time-consuming and costly. With no dedicated recruitment personnel, allocating resources to the hiring process risked diverting senior team members from their primary responsibilities. The challenge lay in rapidly expanding staff numbers across all business areas in a manner that was efficient, cost-effective, and ensured an
exceptional candidate experience.
