At Monzo we believe there’s a better way to do banking - we care deeply about our customers, are innovative and execute quickly.

We’re looking to revolutionise the way people manage their finances by putting them in control and promoting their financial wellbeing. We aim to create a genuine feel-good factor when it comes to personal credit, and are looking for driven, analytical and creative individuals to help us achieve this goal.

We are scaling up our team to support the rapid growth and evolution of our portfolio. This role is an analyst within that team. Strong data and analytical skills are a must. Previous experience working in a credit risk role is essential, exposure to consumer lending products such as loans and credit cards a plus

  • Writing credit proposals which will be adopted as Monzo underwriting policy
  • Supporting the design and roll-out of new lending strategies by finding patterns in the data and translating these into insights
  • Operate and enhance our credit models to forecast cash flows and assess net present value of new lending cohorts (SQL & Python)
  • Work on projects to improve the accuracy and efficiency of our models
  • Working with people from engineering, marketing, product, risk and control to design and deliver initiatives to improve our credit underwriting, boost growth and/or manage portfolio risk

  • You can convey problems and solutions using effective communication, both written and verbal
  • You work well collaborating in a team with diverse skill-sets and personality types
  • You have a self-starter mindset; you proactively identify issues and opportunities and tackle them without being told to do so
