About Monzo

Monzo Group is a leading financial technology company, with over 14 million customers in the UK, committed to providing modern banking solutions. In the last few years, we’ve built a banking app that our customers love – with extremely high daily engagement, an industry leading net promoter score, and award-winning customer support. We’ve raised over $1 billion from Capital G, Google’s growth fund, Ribbit Capital, TenCent, YCombinator, Stripe, Coatue, and others - most recently at a $5.9 billion valuation in 2024.

We’re just getting started in the US. We’re an agile full stack team operating like an early stage startup but with the financial, operational, and engineering platform muscle of a larger company. We’re focused on building an amazing US product, shipping and iterating quickly, and deepening our product market fit. We’re looking for highly driven, enterprising people to help us achieve our mission to make money work for everyone.

The US team

We started in the UK and became one of the most loved digital banks, trusted by millions. Now, we’re bringing that same energy, innovation, and heart to the US, empowering people to take control of their finances with clarity, simplicity, and confidence.

Our US team is on a mission to make digital banking that grows your money, your way. Whether it’s cashback rewards that fit your real habits, high-yield savings with no hidden catches, or smart budgeting tools that simplify life, everything we build is designed to lift people up, not trip them up

But what truly sets Monzo apart isn’t just our product - it’s our people. We’re a team of builders, problem-solvers, and big thinkers united by a shared belief that finance can (and should) be fair, transparent, and empowering. We care deeply about the work we do and the impact it has on real people’s lives.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
