Job Description

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

You’ll also work one full weekend (Saturday and Sunday), once every 8 weeks. No holidays can be taken during the training period which is expected to last for the first 7 weeks.

Our Financial Crime team

Our Mission in the Financial Crime Collective is to earn and keep our customers’ trust, support Monzo’s safe growth, and contribute to building a safer society.
Are you looking to start, or continue building, a career in financial crime prevention? We are looking for proven problem solvers to join our team as Anti-Money Laundering Investigators and help us on our mission to make money work for everyone. 

You’ll play a key role by…

• Analysing potentially unusual or suspicious behaviour on customer accounts flagged by our transaction monitoring system, and deciding what action (if any) Monzo should take.
• Documenting suspicious activity you identify in your role, and sending it to the National Crime Agency to support them with their investigations.
• Locking down money that has been obtained through fraud, so that it can be returned to victims.
• Closing customer accounts, when this is necessary, and ensuring money is returned to the correct place.
• Responding to escalations about potential financial crime concerns from your colleagues in the customer support team.
• Reviewing and approving customer requests to increase their payment limits, to help ensure high value payments are made safely.
  

We’d love to hear from you if…

• You have experience conducting investigations in an operational setting with subject matter expertise preferably in AML. 
• You have recent experience with emerging financial crime trends and typologies.
• You hold, or are happy to work towards, an ICA International Certificate in Anti Money Laundering, or similar industry qualification.
• You are interested in learning about emerging trends in the world of financial crime.
• You love connecting dots, spotting patterns in data, and independently solving problems.
• You feel confident making difficult, customer-impacting decisions.
• You’re great at explaining complex ideas simply, 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’re keen to invest in your personal development and continuous learning – we’ll even support you in signing up for industry-recognised qualifications.

Not ticking every box? That’s totally okay! Studies show that women and people of colour might hesitate to apply unless they meet every single requirement.

If you’re passionate about this role and keen to learn and grow with us, we encourage you to apply— even if you don’t have everything that’s listed just yet. Drop us your application, we’d love to hear from you!
Although this role is advertised for Anti Money Laundering, we may ask you to flex between our other Financial Crime pillars – Business Banking Fincrime, Screening or Law Enforcement. We’ll always give you additional training though anytime we ask you to take on new skills or task types!
