⭐Our Regulatory Affairs team

We’re looking for a pragmatic, organised and personable individual to strengthen our Regulatory Affairs team.

The Regulatory Affairs team is the central team responsible for maintaining open and collaborative relationships with our regulators across the Monzo Group. In the Regulatory Affairs team, you’ll support and strengthen Monzo’s regulatory relationships and work closely with Executives to help shape our vision and regulatory affairs strategy as Monzo continues to grow. You’ll also work closely with our contacts at the Irish and European Regulators (CBI and ECB) and support the wider Regulatory Affairs team with engagement with other relevant Regulators (PRA and FCA), responding to information requests, preparing for meetings and submitting regulatory submissions. 

We are on a mission to Make Money Work for Everyone and we’ve grown to over 10 million customers. For Regulatory Affairs this means ensuring our regulators are kept informed, managing regulatory requests and educating colleagues on the regulatory landscape. 

We operate a “three lines of defence” model of risk management at Monzo. You’ll be sitting in the second line as part of our Risk and Compliance team, working in the Regulatory Affairs Team.

• Owning the governance and tracking of regulatory deliverables, deadlines and activities ensuring stakeholders are held accountable.
• Taking responsibility for the preparation, submission and management of technically complex regulatory submissions.
• Working with subject matter experts in Risk and Compliance and across the business to coordinate and prepare for regulatory visits.
• Preparing data driven reports for the Executives that are clear, concise and informative.
• Building and enhancing our policies and procedures for engaging with regulators.
• Being a champion of risk and compliance and building respectful and collaborative relationships with all levels of stakeholders across the business.

🤩We’d love to hear from you if…

• You have proven experience in a regulatory affairs role at an Irish/European regulated financial services firm or at an Irish or European financial services regulator 
• Have knowledge of CBI and/or ECB regulatory and supervisory obligations
• A deep understanding of managing relations with important external stakeholders
