  • Leading projects across our security programme, which has previously included third-party security, governance and vulnerability management.
  • Representing Security in projects across Monzo, including product launches, and helping teams identify and manage security risks.
  • Writing security policies and procedures with teams across Security and the wider bank.
  • Mentoring and developing our Security Analysts.
  • Keeping up with emerging security threats, technology and risks, and helping us prepare for what’s next.
  • Working with our internal audit and risk teams to make sure security controls are implemented and regularly assessed for effectiveness.

🤩 We’d love to hear from you if…

  • You’re excited about making a difference to how we deliver information security at Monzo.
  • You’ve managed projects across a range of security domains and are comfortable leading several pieces of work at once.
  • You’re working towards a recognised security qualification, such as CISSP.
  • You communicate clearly in writing and conversation, and can explain complex topics to different audiences.
  • You work confidently and independently, including when engaging senior stakeholders, and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment.
  • You enjoy using data to measure and improve your work, can interpret technical requirements, regulations and procedures, and are open to new approaches and technologies, including GenAI.
