About the role
Monzo is expanding its presence across Europe and is looking for a Data Director to lead this initiative. You will work closely with EU leadership and the global leadership team to shape product strategy and data foundations.

- Set the data strategy for the EU, including defining events, metrics, and forecasts for new markets.
- Partner with Finance to lead goal-setting and target definition for EU expansion.
- Represent Data at the Executive Committee level, influencing how decisions are made across the business.
- Build and retain a high-performing team of Data practitioners, fostering a culture of high craft and inclusivity.
Requirements
- Experience operating at Director level or above, with a track record of building or scaling a data function in a new market or product line.
- Ability to move between detailed data architecture and high-level commercial strategy.
- Experience leading company-wide goal-setting and defining high-clarity metrics.
- Strong people leadership skills, with experience growing teams of individual contributors and managers.
- Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to make analytical decisions with incomplete data.
Pay and benefits
- Salary range: £150,900 to £204,100.
- Stock options and additional benefits.
- Visa sponsorship available.
- Flexible working hours and trust-based working arrangements.
- £1,000 annual learning budget for books, training, and conferences.
