About us: 

We’re here to make money work for everyone and we're doing things differently. For too long, banking has been obtuse, complex and opaque.

We want to change that and build a bank with everyone, for everyone. Our amazing community suggests features, test the app and give us constant feedback so we can build something everyone loves.

We're focused on solving problems, rather than selling financial products. We want to make the world a better place and change people's lives through Monzo.

 About our Fincrime Team:

The Fincrime collective at Monzo is responsible for enabling products and services that solve for the financial needs of all customers while inherently safeguarding customers and society from the harm of financial crime. The team collectively owns products and platforms that support intelligent decisioning of customers and transactions on the platform  with ML models and rules to assess inherent risk.The team also works on building innovative customer safety features as well as tools to enhance operations support to better protect businesses and customers from fraud. We’re in an exciting, high growth phase  as a collective, with ambitious goals to build the best-in-class fincrime products while supporting Monzo’s aggressive customer and revenue targets.

You must possess an innate ability to consistently strike the right balance between consumer experience, risk and operations costs. You will play a key role in shaping the future of Monzo’s Fincrime & Fraud fighting capabilities with a focus on strengthening our team, products and platforms and setting us up for long term success.
