🚀 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 Data Discipline
We have a strong culture of data-driven decision making across the whole company. Data is central to how we understand our customers, shape our products, manage risk and grow Monzo sustainably. We believe in empowering teams with high-quality, trusted data and self-serve analytics, while creating space for Data practitioners to focus on the highest-impact questions, opportunities and decisions.
Our Data discipline is centralised, but deeply embedded in Monzo’s product areas. Data Scientists, Analytics Engineers, Machine Learning Engineers and Analysts work in cross-functional squads alongside Engineers, Designers, Product Managers, Marketers and other specialists. This means Data is not a downstream service: we help shape strategy, challenge thinking, build the data foundations teams need to move quickly, and share accountability for customer and commercial outcomes.
At Monzo, payments are more than just moving money from A to B. They are a core part of how customers experience trust, speed, and financial control every day. As a Data Director in Payments, you would help shape seamless local payment experiences, ensuring customers can pay and get paid reliably while continuing to modernise the infrastructure that powers millions of transactions behind the scenes.
The role also sits at the intersection of Monzo’s broader ambition to build truly borderless banking and expand into new markets. That means designing products and payment capabilities that work effortlessly across geographies, currencies, and customer needs, while helping Monzo scale into new markets with the same simplicity and transparency that defines the brand today.
You’ll partner closely with Product, Engineering, and Design to help shape Monzo’s payments strategy to make Monzo's global ambitions a reality, enabling revenue and customer growth with a resilient, self-serve banking platform.
To succeed, you should be excited about solving tough, ambiguous business problems with analytical rigour, commercial viability and execution effectiveness
What we’re doing here at Monzo excites you!
After an informal ~30 min recruiter call, our interview process involves 2 main stages. We promise not to ask you any brain teasers or trick questions!
Our average process takes around 3-4 weeks but we will always work around your availability. You will have the chance to speak to our recruitment team at various points during your process but if you do have any specific questions ahead of this please contact us on tech-hiring@monzo.com

Our offices are naturally social, especially Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, which happen to line up with our twice-weekly Monzo lunches & treat Thursdays 🍽️. Teams also schedule time together often for work and play – in or around the office, or online.
At Monzo, we value connections, flexibility, and wellbeing. We keep our meetings during core hours to stay connected and believe in maintaining work/life balance.
You’ll be empowered to manage your work in a way that suits you and your team, giving you the freedom for children drop-offs and pick-ups, walking your dog or adventurous cat, avoiding peak commuting times or gym slots, appointments, or supporting your family in an emergency. 🕒✨

No. Monzo's senior backend engineering posting says there is no mandated requirement on office attendance, even for engineers who live nearby, though the company values meeting in person. If you live outside London and are asked to come in, Monzo supports you with the costs. The offices are most social on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Remote roles at Monzo are UK-only. Most UK postings are listed as "Cardiff, London or Remote (UK)", and its engineering posting says engineers live everywhere in the UK, from Brighton to the Western Isles. Roles in Barcelona, Madrid and Dublin are office-located, and visa sponsorship is available for certain roles.
Monzo says it trusts people to work enough hours to do the job well, at times that suit them and their team. Customer operations roles are the exception and work set shifts. Engineering keeps meetings within core hours, and Monzo says it will make part-time working happen whenever it can.
Monzo offers 26 days' holiday plus bank holidays, or 34 days if you opt out of bank holidays. Everyone can also take 1 month of unpaid leave every year, and there are 8 weeks of paid sabbatical leave after every 5 years of service. Compassionate leave is 10 days as standard, with grief counselling.
Primary caregivers get 26 weeks at full pay, then 13 weeks at statutory maternity pay and 13 weeks unpaid, after 13 weeks of service. Secondary caregivers get 13 weeks at full pay plus 39 weeks unpaid. Monzo also offers up to 12 weeks of paid neonatal leave, up to 8 days of paid fertility treatment leave a year, up to 10 days of additional paid leave for pregnancy loss, and fertility and family-forming health education.
Salaries are reviewed every year, and an Incentive Award tied to performance can be paid as cash, equity or a mix. Monzo contributes 4% of base salary to your pension and matches additional contributions up to a maximum of 6%. Each employee gets a learning budget of 1,000 pounds a year for books, training courses and conferences, and at least one engineering posting publishes its salary range alongside the role's level. Monzo is also an accredited Living Wage employer.
