🚀 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 ❤️

UK Remote | 💰£32,200 to £40,750 + Benefits
Our Life Events Team (part of Vulnerability, Accessibility, Inclusion and Bereavement Domain)
We have a dedicated team committed to ensuring that Monzo recognises, considers, and advocates for the needs of all our customers and authorised Third Parties — particularly those experiencing challenging circumstances, such as bereavements or incarceration. We are seeking an individual with strong experience in supporting vulnerable customers and leading teams through change to join our Management Team. In this role, you will lead a squad of Life Events Cops. As a Team Manager, you will be responsible for supporting the professional growth and development of your team members. This includes providing coaching and guidance on Life Events tasks, driving high individual and team performance, supporting colleagues through complex and sensitive situations, and recognising and celebrating their achievements. You’ll hold weekly meetings with your team members (both individually and together as a team) to ensure everyone is informed, engaged, and performing at work. You’ll also be responsible for aggregating the feedback that your team provides in these meetings and feeding it into operational leadership to ensure we continue to improve on our processes and tooling. Team Managers are also heavily involved in our hiring processes, and regularly act as interviewers – so you may also have the opportunity to help shape the team as it continues to grow.
