Founded in 1861, we’re the UK’s largest mutual life, pensions and investment company. Our excellent customer service and our mutuality means we can give customers that little bit more, and you can trust us to be there for you when it counts.
Royal London work hard to attract the best talent for our award winning team. We believe that embracing difference makes us stronger. Our diverse people bring us different skills – whatever their educational background, physical ability or disability, gender, age and sexual orientation. This has helped us grow into the largest mutual life, pensions and investment company in the UK with group funds under management of £130 billion. Our businesses provide around 8.8 million policies. And we have over 4000 employees across 6 sites in the UK and Ireland. (Figures quoted are as at June 2019).
Since 1861, when Royal London was founded in a London coffee shop, plenty has changed (although the popularity of coffee shops remains undiminished). First we were a friendly society then a mutual insurance company. We started out by helping people to avoid the stigma of a pauper's grave. We have been helping people to help themselves ever since.
To achieve our vision of becoming the most trusted and recommended financial company in the UK, we need to have a shared understanding not only of where we're going and why - – but how we're going to get there. This is where our culture and values come in. The specialist businesses that make up the Royal London Group are clearly positioned within their markets and our goal is to provide innovative solutions that match the needs of distribution partners and customers.
