According to The Daily Telegraph, the bank said it would create the new roles amid reports that it is close to completing a deal for 318 branches from the Royal Bank of Scotland.

The news was welcomed by the unions. Nigel Cotgrove, national official at the CWU, told The Telegraph: “The news that Santander is to create 600 new jobs in the UK is a welcome boost for CWU members and the UK banking sector as a whole.”
