Monzo Bank

Careers at Monzo Bank

We’re building a new kind of bank

A bank that lives on your smartphone and built for the way you live today. By solving your problems, treating you fairly and being totally transparent, we believe we can make banking better.

Since we started we’ve been busy building the best current account in the world. We now have more than one million customers using our debit cards to manage their money and spend around the world. Download the app today to join the revolution.

We believe there should be an alternative to the banking of the past

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.

We’re building Monzo together

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 of users suggests features, tests the app and gives us constant feedback so we can build something we all love.

Our tone of voice

How we write can change how people feel about us, so we’d better make sure our words reflect what we stand for. Our tone of voice guidelines exist to do just that.

We’re a growing, fast-paced team based in the heart of London

Five minutes walk from Moorgate and Liverpool Street station. We’re a team of just over 700 people building a bank. We're taking care of everything from regulation, to app development, to card distribution, and more.

Our Mission & Vision

This isn’t banking as you know it. Monzo is a bank for everyone, that works with you, for you.
