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 Financial Crime team 💰

We are looking for experienced Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Investigators who love fighting financial crime and learning new skills to join our team, and help Monzo make money work for everyone.

At Monzo, we tackle financial crime through our specialised Pillars, with each focusing on specific business areas, risks, or typologies, including business banking, money laundering, fraud, bribery and corruption, politically exposed persons and sanctions, and tax evasion, to name a few.

What you'll be working on

Our Investigators are trained and focused on tasks related to their Pillar, allowing them to build subject matter expertise and help us protect Monzo, our customers, and society. Collaboration is key, though, so we also work together across Pillars when required.

Your day-to-day

Every day, you’ll spend your time on things like:

• Investigating alerts (we call them tasks) raised by our transaction monitoring systems, analysing customer accounts to identify risk or suspicious activity, and recording your decisions in a clear and concise rationale
• Reviewing and taking action on escalations from Frontline Customer Operations (COps)
• Writing and submitting high-quality suspicious activity reports (SARs) to the National Crime Agency (NCA)
• Securing fraudulent funds so that they can be returned to victims
• Processing account closures, including defunds and ban reminders

You should apply if:

• You have experience working in operational financial crime - or think 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 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.
