# Starling Bank cuts 130 jobs in AI and restructuring push

**[The Next Web](https://daily.dev/sources/tnw)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Starling Bank is cutting 130 jobs (3% of its workforce) as part of a restructuring aimed at simplifying operations and accelerating AI adoption. The London neobank's pre-tax profit fell to £217 million for the second consecutive year, with revenue dropping from £940 million to £887 million, largely due to falling interest rates. Despite the cuts, Starling is actively hiring AI and technology engineers. Its agentic AI assistant launched in March and its scam detection tool uses Google's Gemini models. The brighter spot is Engine, its SaaS banking technology arm, which grew revenue 25% and is now targeting the US market with a New York office and $50 million investment. The move reflects a broader sector trend: Morgan Stanley estimates AI could eliminate up to 400,000 European banking jobs by 2030.
