About Us
Buckinghamshire Building Society was founded in 1907 with a simple purpose to provide a safe home for people\'s money and to help people achieve the dream of home ownership. That same purpose lives on today through the Bucks’ vision to be the best small building society, endorsed by a thriving membership locally and nationally, committed to helping members achieve financial security and home ownership.
Our “Sustainably Strong | Member Centred | Community Rooted" strategy guides our activities which centre on providing a unique mortgage and savings proposition. We have a particularly strong association with areas such as parental/family support for first time buyers, shared ownership, self-build, and retirement lending, and provide an award-winning mortgage service through responsiveness, reliability and individually assessed underwriting. We distribute mortgages mainly through intermediaries and have a diversified lending portfolio across England and Wales.
Our savings range has similar breadth and reach, albeit with a greater concentration in the local area. As the only building society headquartered in Buckinghamshire, we are proud of our lasting work with partners and charities, and we are committed to driving purpose-aligned benefits to the local community. Most of all, we strive to offer our members an outstanding level of customer service, and continue to invest in our people, prioritising engagement, development, and well-being to make the Bucks an exceptional place to work.
The Buckinghamshire Building Society is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to actively promoting diversity and inclusion.
