Job Description

We’re on a mission to make money work for everyone.

We’re waving goodbye to the complicated and confusing ways of traditional banking.

After starting as a prepaid card, our product offering has grown a lot in the last 10 years in the UK. As well as personal and business bank accounts, we offer joint accounts, accounts for 16-17 year olds, a free kids account and credit cards in the UK, with more exciting things to come beyond. Our UK customers can also save, invest and combine their pensions with us.

With our hot coral cards and get-paid-early feature, combined with financial education on social media and our award winning customer service, we have a long history of creating magical moments for our customers!

We’re not about selling products - we want to solve problems and change lives through Monzo ❤️

London or Remote (UK) | £78,000 - £98,000 + Benefits |

Monzo is maturing. As we look toward the next phase of our growth, we need to ensure our Marketing engine is fast, effective, and rigorously compliant.

We are looking for a Governance Lead to work within our Marketing collective, where they will own our governance centrally. We need a builder - someone who can execute the day-to-day controls while simultaneously designing the high-level strategy and infrastructure designed to scale globally.

Currently, data compliance and governance can feel decentralised or like a "side job". You will change that. Our Legal and Risk partners are world-class, but they shouldn't be the first people to see a draft campaign. We are looking for a Marketing Governance Lead to be the operational bridge - embedding regulatory expertise directly into our creative process. You will ensure that by the time a project reaches Compliance, it is already rigorous, evidenced, and ready to ship, and will move us from a reactive state to a proactive strategy that unlocks growth.

What you’ll be doing:

Governance architecture: You will design the end-to-end governance workflow for marketing approvals alongside our Risk & Control Partners. You will create audit-ready processes and procedures that ensure every campaign is compliant by design.
Financial Promotions (FinProms): You will act as the primary responsible owner for adherence to FCA rules. You will own the claims matrix, ensuring every statement we make is substantiated and verifiable.
Act as a pre-filter: You will resolve routine FinProms and data questions locally, ensuring we only escalate complex, high-value decisions to our legal, risk and compliance partners.
Risk culture: You will help create a healthy risk culture at Monzo. You will help develop training for the marketing team to view compliance not as a blocker, but as a safety rail that allows us to move faster.
Consent management: You won't just police permissions; you will develop and implement strategies to increase customer opt-ins. You will treat consent as a product, working to maximise our marketable base and enable personalisation.
MarTech: You will act as the business partner for our backend engineering and MarTech teams, defining the requirements and tooling required for handling customer data, preference centres, etc.
International expansion: As we expand into Europe, you will lead the regulatory setup for marketing in new geographies. You will navigate wildly varying regulations to build a scalable policy approach for market entry.
Third-party & operational control: You will manage the
