Virgin Money UK traces its origins to the acquisition of Northern Rock from the UK government in early 2012. Following the takeover, the business was rebranded under the Virgin Money name and subsequently expanded its presence through the merger with CYBG plc in 2018. This strategic union brought together Clydesdale Bank and Yorkshire Bank under the Virgin Money banner, unifying their branch networks and consolidating back-office operations to drive efficiency and customer reach.
Headquartered in Newcastle upon Tyne, Virgin Money UK serves customers throughout England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland via its branch network, online channels and partner outlets. The executive leadership team is headed by Chief Executive Officer David Bennett, supported by a board of directors and senior management with extensive experience in retail and commercial banking. Under this leadership, the company continues to pursue growth through service innovation, digital enhancements, and a commitment to customer satisfaction.
