Metro Bank (UK)

We’re thrilled to announce that we've won the Trans in the City Trans Inclusive Organisation Award! This recognition reflects our commitment to fostering an inclusive environment for all our customers and colleagues, and we couldn’t have done it without the incredible work of our colleague inclusion network, Mpride. We are honoured that our efforts are having a positive impact on the transgender and non-binary communities. Here’s what Trans in the City had to say about why we were selected: “Metro Bank prioritises people-first banking and is committed to LGBTQ+ inclusion, being the first UK bank to offer ‘Mx’ titles on accounts. Metro Bank works to promote diversity through its D&I strategy, the Mpride inclusion network, and initiatives like gender-neutral policies, training, and the adoption of pronouns in various HR and customer-facing platforms, fostering an environment where colleagues can be their authentic selves and customers feel safe. Incredible work!”

We’re proud to be shortlisted in the British Legal Awards 2024 for the ‘In-House Legal Team of the Year - Small Team’. These awards recognise the outstanding contributions of legal professionals and teams, and we’re delighted that the hard work in our team has been recognised.

We’re excited to be at The Business Show in London – the UK’s biggest event for small businesses. We’re here today and tomorrow, brewing up great conversations about all things business banking. We believe relationships start over a coffee, so pop by our stand, grab a personalised coffee, and let’s chat about how we can support your business goals. #TheBusinessShow2024 #RelationshipBanking

This month, with the help of our colleague inclusion network, MBrace, we hosted an event to celebrate and talk about the story behind Diwali and Bandi Chhor Divas. We marked the occasion with amazing food, music, and by decorating tealights and candles, all to fundraise and support our nominated charity – Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).  

In 2021, we received the prestigious Gold Award from the Defence Employer Recognition Scheme, honouring its ongoing efforts to support the Armed Forces. Our Head of Operational Resilience and RAF Veteran, Simon Webb said "As a proud signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant, it was a wonderful opportunity for Metro Bank to show its continued support for the Armed Forces community and their families. We are grateful for the chance to contribute to such an important cause.”
