⭐ About our Senior Financial Crime Business Banking Investigator Team

The Senior Financial Crime Business Banking Investigator team serves as Monzo’s frontline defence against complex economic crime, safeguarding our ecosystem and customers, from startups to established SMEs, against sophisticated fraud and money laundering. Operating within a specialised, risk-focused "Pillar," this critical operational team builds deep subject matter expertise to ensure financial integrity across the entire customer lifecycle. The team is responsible for conducting rigorous onboarding and ongoing compliance checks, unravelling complex financial crime typologies, and directly mitigating risk through thorough investigation, reporting, and account closures.

🔑 You’ll play a key role by...

  • Taking ownership of the most complex FinCrime Business Banking tasks, including Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) for high-risk businesses, Complex Customer Reviews (e.g., sensitive areas like Sexual Services flags), and multi-jurisdictional money muling investigations.
  • Writing, reviewing, and submitting high-quality Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) to the National Crime Agency (NCA), ensuring they meet the highest legal and evidential standards.
  • Maintaining a regular schedule on core investigative tasks to sustain your competency levels, directly support the domain’s Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and remain connected to frontline challenges.
  • Actively coaching Investigators on complex financial crime typologies, best practice, and performance improvement to help drive a culture of excellence.
  • Working closely with our Operations Analysts to share emerging trends and ensure that operational guidance is continuously updated and effectively embedded across the domain.

🤩 We’d love to hear from you if...

  • You have deep KYB & AML expertise, with significant experience conducting end-to-end business due diligence (KYB/EDD) and complex investigations within a regulated financial setting.
  • You are a skilled researcher, with a proven ability to leverage open-source intelligence and analysis to thoroughly corroborate customer profiles and transactional activity.
  • You know regulations and typologies, possessing a strong grasp of UK and international financial crime trends affecting business accounts and the UK SAR regime.
  • You thrive in a fast-paced environment, maintaining high flexibility and adapting positively to shifting priorities, new guidance, and process changes at short notice.
  • You are impact-driven, with a genuine desire to protect Monzo and its customers by making a tangible difference in the detection and prevention of financial crime.
  • You bring leadership and improvement skills, ideally with experience mentoring peers, a track record of escalating process improvements, or a relevant qualification (such as ICA or ACAMS).

⏰ Shifts you’ll be working

You will work 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday, from 9:00am to 5:30pm. You will also work one full weekend (Saturday and Sunday) once every 4 weeks, with 2 set days in lieu provided when working the weekend shift.

We cannot approve any time off during your first 6 weeks of employment with us due to training. Your training will be held Monday-Friday, 9am-5:30pm.

🙌 What’s in it for you

💰 Salary range of £31,100 - £39,350 + Incentive Awards tied to your performance

🎂 We guarantee to approve time off on your birthday if it falls on a scheduled work day (outside of your training period).

📍 This role is fully remote and based within the UK.

📚 A £1,000 annual budget to spend on books, training courses, and conferences.

🏡 We will set you up for success from home; all employees are provided with MacBooks, and fully remote workers receive extra support for their work-from-home environment.

➕ Plus lots more! Read our full list of benefits.

🌈 The application journey has 3 key steps

  1. Application questions – Please take the time to answer these, as we read every single one.
  2. Recruiter call – A 30-minute video call to assess skills fit
  3. Hiring Manager interview – A 60-minute video call focusing on values and technical questions.

This process should take around 3-4 weeks - your schedule is really important to us, so we promise to be as flexible as possible!

We have some guidelines on using Artificial Intelligence (AI) to ace an application and interview at Monzo. You can read them here.

We’ll only close this role once we have enough applications for the next stage. Please submit your application as soon as possible to make sure you don’t miss out.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
