🚀 We’re on a mission to make money work for everyone.

We’re waving goodbye to the complicated and confusing ways of traditional banking.

After starting as a prepaid card, our product offering has grown a lot in the last 10 years in the UK. As well as personal and business bank accounts, we offer joint accounts, accounts for 16-17 year olds, a free kids account and credit cards in the UK, with more exciting things to come beyond. Our UK customers can also save, invest and combine their pensions with us. 

With our hot coral cards and get-paid-early feature, combined with financial education on social media and our award winning customer service, we have a long history of creating magical moments for our customers!

We’re not about selling products - we want to solve problems and change lives through Monzo ❤️

⭐ About our Law Enforcement Team:

Law Enforcement Investigators are key to our strategy within financial crime operations. The team is responsible for responding to requests for information from Law Enforcement and other public agencies including the National Crime Agency, Department of Work & Pensions and the Serious Fraud Office. Our team also monitors accounts that are subject to Restraint or Freezing Orders issued under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, prepare witness statements for court and carry out reviews of high risk accounts.

🔑 You’ll play a key role by…

  • Triaging, logging and investigating requests from Law enforcement, analysing customer accounts to identify risk or suspicious activity, and recording your decisions in a clear and concise rationale.
  • Reviewing and responding to follow up questions from Law Enforcement and other public agencies.
  • Identifying and escalating high risk tasks to senior investigators.
  • Responding to escalations in the Law Enforcement escalation channels.

🤩 We’d love to hear from you if…

  • You have experience working within a law enforcement liaison role with a background in operational financial crime or believe that you have other relevant experience that we should consider.
  • You are interested in current trends in financial crime
  • You love connecting the dots and solving problems.
  • You are committed to helping Law Enforcement agencies tackle crime and making Monzo a hostile environment for criminals
  • You are comfortable making judgement-based decisions in a changing environment.
  • You’re great at explaining things to people, and have strong written English.
  • You’re excited by our mission of making money work for everyone.
  • You are self-motivated and take ownership of your own performance.
  • You have, or are interested in studying for, a professional qualification from the International Compliance Association (ICA), Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS) or an equivalent body.

Not ticking every box? That’s totally okay! Studies show that women and people of colour might hesitate to apply unless they meet every single requirement. At Monzo, we’re dedicated to creating a diverse and welcoming team. If you’re passionate about this role and keen to learn and grow with us, we encourage you to apply— even if you don’t have everything that's listed just yet.

Making Monzo work for everyone starts right at the beginning of every Monzonaut's journey: when they apply to work here. This demographic survey will help us better understand the people who apply to work at Monzo. It'll help us see how different groups progress through our hiring process, and where we need to make improvements to be more inclusive. If you choose to fill it out, all of the information you give us is:

  • Voluntary. And we've included a "prefer not to say" option for every question. It'd be helpful if you still fill out the survey even if you choose "prefer not to say" for every question, as it's useful for us to understand & record this. We won't know if you choose to fill this survey in or not.
