We’re looking for someone who is forward-thinking and collaborative to ensure we’re not only customer-focussed and innovative, but fully compliant.
At Monzo we do things differently - we truly care about providing a phenomenal experience for our customers. We believe there’s a better way to do banking, and we want to be the best possible (fully compliant!) bank without getting stuck in the old ways of doing things. As a technology company, we’re excited about developments in regtech and want you to help us be at the forefront.
You’ll join our lean second line of defence, currently three people covering risk, compliance and legal. You will take ownership of regulatory compliance around three key areas of the business: conduct, product and customer-facing operations. This will give you an incredible insight into how a fintech business operates.
You’ll spend most of your time:
- Making sure our teams understand current and future regulatory requirements - both what they must do, and what is not actually required or useful
- Challenging our procedures to ensure that we’re providing great outcomes and meeting regulatory requirements
- Helping instil a proactive culture towards regulation and legislation across the company including managing our relationships with regulators.
You’ll need to have strong knowledge of and be comfortable giving interpretations of regulation, determining how it applies to a digital bank, and striving to continually push the boundaries both on our approach and on upcoming regulatory changes.
Apply if:
- You're a qualified lawyer or compliance officer (or equivalent) and have experience working in personal financial services, ideally with experience advising on retail banking, consumer finance, payment services, data protection, and third-party partnership arrangements
- You’re excited about technology, and you’ve worked with digital teams
- You’re able to build strong, mutually respectful relationships with diverse teams
- You’re curious about the future of banking and want to work with us to shape it
