Salary benchmarks

Our take

Consumers are not satisfied with the products being offered by traditional banks, who have proven slow to react to their needs and demands. Plum is one of the increasing number of money management alternatives, offering a platform for users to automate their investments and savings.

The development of fintech in the UK has made the space incredibly competitive, with other companies such as Cleo and Emma trying to solve similar problems. That said, Plum has certainly found its place, with over a million users having downloaded the app. It was also voted Best Personal Finance App at the 2023 British Bank Awards, a testament to its popularity.

The company plans to use its latest funding to accelerate European expansion and heighten its product offering, building a more cohesive customer experience for its app. Most recent developments to the platform include the addition of "Watchlists" and "Price Alerts", two features that aim to further empower people by delivering smart notifications and portfolio control.

Company values

  • Figure It Out - Creating change is not impossible. Effort, curiosity, and persistence got us where we are today and will get us where we need to be tomorrow
  • Make Change Happen - Money will work radically differently from how it does today. When it comes to savings - it will only work the way it should, if we make it happen
  • Together We Push - We push each other to a high standard, treat each other fairly, and are constantly evolving into better versions of ourselves. We push new ideas - the old way of money is no longer fit for purpose. We push until it’s done. “Done” is when it’s helping our customers
  • No Frills - We’re lean and efficient because we’re here for the long term. Our journey with our customers ends when they retire
  • Have Their Back - Plum customers are financially better off people. We look out for them and have their best interests at heart, whilst still having a material impact on their finances. This is why they trust us
