Revolut requires new graduates and interns to work in office at least three days a week
8 reported
Revolut is changing its remote-first policy for new graduate and intern hires in 2027, requiring them to work in an office at least three days a week. The digital bank had previously allowed young trainees to choose between working from home or its offices, a flexibility that extended to all staff. The company stated it recognizes that early career stages benefit from in-person collaboration and mentoring. This change will affect hundreds of junior trainees, as Revolut has hired more than 300 graduates and interns this year. Revolut said the policy shift applies only to the 2027 talent programmes and that its remote-first policy remains unchanged for all other employees. The company, which has 13 million customers in the UK and was valued at $75bn last year, secured a UK banking licence earlier this year after a five-year wait. The decision aligns Revolut more closely with other large banks that tightened work-from-home policies after the Covid pandemic, particularly for younger staff.
