About us

Monzo is the seventh biggest bank in the UK with a mission to Make Money Work for Everyone. In the last few years we’ve built a banking app with very high daily engagement and an NPS that’s well above the norm. 10 million UK adults have a Monzo account already, but we have a global ambition and the opportunity to impact hundreds of millions - perhaps even billions - of lives. 

Product is at the heart of this ambition. As a PM you’ll lead a multi-disciplinary team to set big, ambitious goals for an entire product area, and have the freedom to decide how to meet them. You’ll operate with autonomy and have a massive impact on our customers’ lives and Monzo’s success.

Core Banking is responsible for the current account used by 10 million customers. That includes creating compelling value propositions for different audiences (including Joint, Under 16s and 16 to 17 accounts), designing the overall app structure, the day-to-day money management experience (including features like Trends, Salary Sorter, Bills Pots, and more) and other value propositions like Travel. The collective is also responsible for Subscriptions, which are paid upgrades that unlocks extra benefits and functionality that help customers make financial progress.

We’re now gearing up for our next phase of growth, from 10 million to 20 million customers.
