Our VAIB team⭐

Making money work for everyone is what we do at Monzo, but it only counts if it works for the people who need support the most. Our Vulnerability, Accessibility, Inclusion and Bereavements (VAIB) team is dedicated to breaking down barriers across the bank. We make sure that whether a customer is vulnerable, disabled, excluded, or experiencing a bereavement, they get a product and a service that is empathetic, accessible, and built entirely with them in mind.

🔑You’ll play a key role by...

As VAIB Strategy Analyst, you will play a critical role in fulfilling Monzo's mission to make money work for everyone by driving meaningful improvements for customers requiring additional support. Working collaboratively, you will leverage data, customer insights, and operational expertise to seamlessly embed vulnerability, accessibility, inclusion, and bereavement considerations into product and service design. You will take proactive ownership of complex strategic projects and use independent judgement to navigate ambiguous escalations, shape treatment strategies, and identify emerging risks. Ultimately, you will ensure that changes deliver equitable customer outcomes while maintaining strong standards of risk management, governance, and regulatory compliance.

• Lead Strategic Delivery: Take ownership of complex VAIB workstreams, translating strategic priorities into clear delivery plans and driving improvements that balance customer needs, regulatory expectations, and operational goals.
• Drive Data-Led Improvements: Analyze quantitative data, customer feedback, and operational insights to identify systemic barriers, proactively monitor outcomes, and develop evidence-based recommendations for strategic change.
• Champion Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner seamlessly across Product, Engineering, and Operations to build VAIB awareness, influence decision-making, and embed inclusive considerations into the design of customer journeys and internal processes.
• Navigate Complex Escalations: Act as the escalation point for complex, ambiguous customer or operational issues, applying strong independent judgement to recommend proportionate solutions when clear policy guidance is unavailable.
• Own Governance and Risk: Manage control requirements for all strategic changes, ensuring work is rigorously assessed, documented, and governed to support informed decision-making and mitigate regulatory risk.
• Coach and Build Capability: Strengthen the wider VAIB team by proactively sharing specialist knowledge, mentoring less experienced colleagues, and elevating overall analytical and strategic ways of working.
  

🤩 We’d love to hear from you if…

• You have deep subject matter expertise in VAIB and relevant legal frameworks (e.g., Consumer Duty, Equality Act, WCAG), applying this knowledge to identify systemic barriers and proactively recommend improvements to products and customer journeys. VAIB experience is preferable but we'd also love to hear from you if you have any other regulatory background. 
• You have a proven ability to independently manage and deliver complex strategic initiatives, utilising quantitative data, customer insights, and operational feedback to investigate ambiguous challenges, resolve blockers, and implement practical solutions.
• You have a strong grasp of risk, governance, and assurance, paired with excellent decision-making skills to confidently navigate ambiguity, appropriately mitigate risks, and ensure complex decisions are effectively balanced and documented.
• You are highly skilled in stakeholder management and communication, with the ability to clearly convey sensitive information, constructively challenge existing approaches, and drive alignment across Operations, Product, Risk, Data, and Engineering.
• You are committed to delivering exceptional outcomes for vulnerable customers, coupled with a dedication to sharing expertise and coaching colleagues to build the overall capability and confidence of the wider team.
