About Monzo

Lead the Data team and shape product strategy for Monzo's expansion into new European markets.

Work closely with EU leadership and Monzo's global Leadership team to influence and drive data strategy.

Build, grow, and retain a high-performing, full-stack Data team, ensuring accountability for product and business outcomes.

You lead through learning loops and hold a high technical bar, because you've built or owned the measurement a business relies on to set goals, run experiments and improve, with the judgement to know which methods and investments will pay off

You move comfortably from detailed metrics and data architecture to customer strategy, commercial outcomes and product-market fit, and you're happy to be the opinionated voice in the room that reframes the trade-off

You change how organisations make decisions, not just how one project turns out, and you have experience of the cross-collective collaboration that connects the dots across different business areas

Requirements

• You're an empathetic people leader who has grown full-stack Data teams of both individual contributors and managers, comfortable representing Data at ExCo and to C-level peers, and you know what it takes to attract, develop and retain top talent
• You have experience leading company-wide or division-wide goal-setting, defining high-clarity metrics, setting targets and partnering closely with Finance
• You're a strategic data leader who has operated at Director level or above, and you're energised by zero-to-one ambiguity, having built or scaled a data function in a new market, product line or business from an early stage
