London; Remote (UK)
Our take: The real work here is being the trusted first-line risk partner across Monzo's payments world, connecting product, technology, operational and regulatory risks and making risk management genuinely useful rather than bureaucratic.
If you see risk not as a brake but as a way to help good products ship safely, this is your kind of work. You will get deep inside how payments actually run at Monzo, connect the technology, operational, regulatory and scheme threads that most people never see, and help teams make well-judged calls without drowning them in process. It suits someone pragmatic and calmly confident, who enjoys constructive challenge and takes pride in a control environment that scales.
