Finance is the oxygen of the economy. Acting transparently and with expertise, we deploy finance responsibly to support people and businesses, acting with empathy and integrity, championing innovation and sustainability, for the common good and the long term. We have the capability and capital, the operational resilience and the commitment, to make a real and lasting difference to the economic lives of customers and communities. This is as true today as it was when our bank was founded over 330 years ago.

A values-driven business

We deploy finance responsibly to support people and businesses, acting with empathy and integrity, championing innovation and sustainability, for the common good and the long term.

Our Purpose is the reason our company exists; the societal need we fulfil. It encapsulates what we are fundamentally here to do. It provides a clear expression of the kind of business we want to be, and what we care about, which in turn helps guide us in the decisions we make.

Working at Barclays

In support of this great purpose, everything we do is underpinned and driven by our strong values of Respect, Integrity, Service, Excellence and Stewardship. These are fundamental to who we are, wherever we are, and in whatever role we have at Barclays – and they really matter to us.

Our values guide us, but we also believe opportunities are created by those who like to challenge convention, explore new possibilities and run with bold ideas. People who think differently, who bring all kinds of backgrounds, skills, experiences and perspectives with them.

We believe that a diverse, inclusive and engaged culture is vital; that everyone’s value should be recognised and celebrated; and that every colleague has the same opportunity to fulfil their career potential. We focus on five global diversity agendas: Disability, Gender, LGBT, Multicultural and Multigenerational. And we support our colleagues in their life and work through our wellbeing initiatives, dynamic working and networking groups.

Team Leader in Glasgow City Centre, Glasgow
on 27 November 2023
Decent place to work
If you're keen to work and make an effort you will receive fair pay and a pretty consistent bonus/payrise. There's other good perks too like shares purchase and sharesave which is mostly like free money (if you can sit through the downturns). At it's worst when they try and take on Americanisms.

Could be better
All in all an OK place to work if not constantly understaffed which adds to pressure, fast paced environment colleagues are friendly, good pay. Use as a stepping stone.

Good place to work. Enjoy interactions with colleagues. Training is there if needed. Support is good. Most managers are of a good standard. I can recommend.

Disorganised and low confidence in senior management
Constant poorly managed organisational changes.Job roles are unclear with some resources being significantly under utilised due to lack of clear guidance, mentorship and job role definition. Business Analysts, Product Managers and Project Managers are interchangeable as the organisation doesn’t appear to understand the difference between the roles, with promotion given to those who have worked t...
