Global FinTech Revolut is preparing to move into its swanky new London offices.
Ahead of next month’s switch into the top four floors of the prestigious YY Building, in Canary Wharf, the company has shared images this week of its logo shining brightly on the top of the building.
Revolut previously occupied an office in Westferry Circus and opted for the YY Building after conducting a London-wide search.
The company’s office footprint in London will increase by over 40 per cent to 113k sq ft as a result of the deal, which has seen Revolut commit to a 10-year lease.

AIS are currently putting the finishing touches to the fit-out which will enable staff to take advantage of the increased space for product launches, workshops, team building activities, and other events.
Revolut also hope the new offices will support the future growth of its UK and global operations.
The company currently has 428 roles its looking to fill, including 81 in London.
Of the 81 roles, 13 are in engineering, 13 are in product and design, and 27 are in sales.
The company was founded exactly 10 years ago by Nik Storonsky and Vlad Yatsenko and now has 60 million customers worldwide, including 11 million in the UK.
Revolut operates a remote-first policy, offering employees flexibility to work from home.

Earlier this year Storonsky said the company remained committed to keeping hybrid working.
He told staff: “Some people work better from home, and some work better in the office alongside their colleagues.
“Our new global HQ in London will be the ideal setting for those who excel in a modern office environment. This office, as well as many of our other workplaces, will continue to play a crucial role in our growth.”
In 2024, Revolut received its UK banking licence with restrictions from the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA), the regulator responsible for overseeing the UK banking sector. It is currently in a ‘mobilisation’ stage as it seeks a full UK banking licence.
