About the Role
We are looking for a Senior Financial Crime Analyst to join our Actions Squad. You will be a subject matter expert across key financial crime controls, taking ownership of complex problems and helping us continuously improve how our controls operate across both Monzo Bank Limited (MBL) and Monzo Bank Europe (MBEU). This is a role with plenty of ownership and cross-functional exposure, working closely with teams across Financial Crime, Operations, Product and Engineering, using data and your financial crime expertise to identify risks, strengthen controls and shape longer-term improvements.
Responsibilities
- Own global risk controls for Exit & Defunds, Law Enforcement and Acceptable Use Standard, with end-to-end oversight of BAU performance across MBL and MBEU.
- Develop and improve control documentation and standards, balancing financial crime risk, operational efficiency and customer experience.
- Use data and trend analysis to monitor control effectiveness, identify emerging threats and spot opportunities to strengthen controls.
- Ensure appropriate financial crime control coverage as Monzo launches new products and expands into new areas.
- Identify and prioritize material risks, escalating these clearly to leadership alongside practical, evidence-based recommendations.
- Own the investigation and remediation of incidents within control areas and partner with other Control Owners to resolve high-impact issues.
- Act as a domain expert for your areas, providing technical guidance, sharing knowledge and helping build capability across the wider Financial Crime Collective.
- Lead cross-functional initiatives across Product, Operations and Engineering, building shared understanding and influencing teams towards compliant and customer-focused solutions.
- Take on Nominated Approver and Financial Crime Floater responsibilities.
Requirements
- Strong financial crime and regulatory compliance expertise and comfort acting as a subject matter expert within your domain.
- Confidence using data to understand control performance, identify weaknesses and make evidence-based recommendations.
- Comfort independently assessing and prioritizing complex financial crime risks, making proportionate decisions and escalating material issues when needed.
- Clear communication skills and ability to adapt approach for different audiences, from operational and technical teams through to senior leaders.
- Ability to work cross-functionally and build strong relationships across teams such as Product, Operations and Engineering to influence outcomes without relying on formal authority.
- Comfort managing a complex portfolio and competing priorities, while maintaining a high bar for quality and proactively identifying opportunities to improve how we work.
