About us :

Monzo Group is a leading financial technology company, with over 9 million customers in the UK, committed to providing modern banking solutions. In the last few years, we’ve built a banking app that our customers love – with extremely high daily engagement, an industry-leading net promoter score, and award-winning customer support. We’ve raised over $1 billion from Capital G, Google’s growth fund, Ribbit Capital, TenCent, YCombinator, Stripe, Coatue, Eric Schmidt, Mike Moritz, and others - most recently at a $5 billion valuation.

We’re just getting started in the US. We’re an agile full-stack team operating like an early-stage startup but with the financial, operational, and engineering platform muscle of a larger company. We’re focused on building an amazing US product, shipping and iterating quickly, and deepening our product market fit. We’re looking for highly driven, enterprising people to help us achieve our mission to make money work for everyone.

The role :

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Finance & Strategy Manager to join our growing US team. This key role will help us grow the business, working closely with the US CEO to build and drive our Strategy with commercial outcomes in mind. The Finance & Strategy Manager will report to the US CEO, and collaborate daily with senior leadership in both the US and in the UK.

You’ll play a key role working on :

  • Taking overall responsibility for the financials of the US business including P&L and cash management
  • Supporting with strategic investment decisions and commercial negotiations
  • Preparing management information, insights & reporting to US CEO, highlighting emerging issues & potential future challenges

  • Working independently and taking the initiative to develop relationships and work across the business to help drive understanding of US financials
  • Making sure financials are managed in line with business plans for both short and long term
  • Taking full ownership of annual budget, forecasts and multi-year plan including modelling using business drivers
  • Working alongside the UK team to ensure accurate financials are recorded at each month end including the accounting for new products or contracts
  • Managing capital calculations and return on equity

We’d love to hear from you if you…

  • Have experience working as a Finance Manager in a startup, a smaller fast-growing business unit within a larger company, or building a local hub for an overseas company. FinTech experience is a bonus!
  • Banking / Finance experience, an accountancy qualification is a nice to have
  • Great analytical & problem-solving skills; the ability to identify trends, issues and recommend actions by presenting data in a meaningful way
  • Strong financial modelling experience and be an advanced user of Excel or Google sheets. A big plus if you're competent at SQL / Looker too.
  • Experience building strong, trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels using strong interpersonal & influencing skills to engage across various internal functions to develop, get buy-in and deliver outcomes
  • Strong attention to detail and organisational skills, able to support with developing new processes and streamlining existing processes to create efficiencies
  • The application journey involves 4 main stages :

  • Recruiter Call (30mins)
  • Interview Loop : 3 x Interviews (currently being conducted via Google Meet) with members of our US and UK teams. We promise not to ask you any brain teasers or trick questions.
  • We’ll only close this role once we have enough applications for the next stage. Please submit your application as soon as possible to make sure you don’t miss out.

    This process should take around 2-3 weeks - your schedule is really important to us, so we promise to be as flexible as possible!
