You will need to have a breadth of knowledge and experience across prudential regulation, ideally covering the recovery and resolution planning, ICAAP, solvent wind down (SWDP), reverse stress testing. You will have the ability to independently interpret a range of regulations, determine the impact of those on the bank, and to manage projects to implement them.
As part of Monzo's Financial Risk team you'll also learn how we protect the Bank from financial stress, and how we manage the risks to our capital resources.
Decisions around the allocation of capital are central to Monzo achieving its strategy and building enterprise value. As such this is an exciting and broad role for an individual looking to build their experience and influence the direction of a unique business going through significant growth.

We'd love to hear from you if you

- Have knowledge/experience of the relevant regulatory requirements, and the ability to interpret what that means for the relatively unique circumstances of our bank.
- Have the ability to coordinate, participate and lead projects to produce regulatory deliverables and maintain the Bank's set of prudential documentation and supporting materials.
- Are interested in identifying relevant data, performing analysis and understanding the impact on our bank.
- Are able to work independently, proactively and enjoy a dynamic and changing environment.
