About this role
🚀 We’re on a mission to make money work for everyone.

As well as personal and business bank accounts, we offer joint accounts, accounts for 16-17 year olds, a free kids account and credit cards in the UK, with more exciting things to come beyond. Our UK customers can also save, invest and combine their pensions with us.
With our hot coral cards and get-paid-early feature, combined with financial education on social media and our award winning customer service, we have a long history of creating magical moments for our customers!
We’re not about selling products - we want to solve problems and change lives through Monzo ❤️

About the team:
Our Borrowing (lending) business is growing rapidly across both existing products and with the planned launch of new initiatives. As our lending portfolio grows, our second line of defence Credit Model Validation team is growing with it - and we’re looking for a Credit Model Validation Manager to join us!
Our Credit Model Validation team provides independent oversight and challenge to our model development teams in the first line of defence. We help Monzo grow safely and make sure the models we use are fit for purpose, appropriately governed and deliver good outcomes for our customers. You’ll join our validation squad and provide expert independent validation and oversight across a broad suite of credit models.
This is a generalist role rather than one focused on a particular model type. You’ll work across models used for impairment, capital, stress testing, forecasting and credit decisioning, including IFRS 9 PD, LGD, EAD and economic response models; decision science scorecards and origination PD models; and Net Present Value (NPV) / unit economics models.
Strong data and analytical skills are a must, as is broad expertise in credit risk modelling and model risk management. You’ll have hands-on experience in model validation and/or development within financial services, and be comfortable getting into the data and code to form an independent view across different model types.
