āOur Design team
Weāre a team of 100+ designers, researchers, and brand experts led by Chief Design Officer Vuokko Aro. Weāre on a mission to make money work for everyone. Product Design makes up almost half of our design disciplines, working in tight-knit squads alongside research, product, and engineering to solve real customer problems at scale.
Ā
We design for the "magic moments"
Weāve built a bank that feels human, not just functional. Our product is our personality. We blend research, empathy, and craft to turn everyday interactions into memorable experiences.
Right now, weāre growing fast and looking for passionate designers to shape Monzoās future and thereās a huge opportunity to make your mark.
The Operations Collective is where we design how help and customer support works at Monzo. We think holistically about the experience of getting support as a customer, and how that connects to the systems, tools, and people behind the scenes.
Weāre focused on delivering effortless, tech-led support experiences that can scale as Monzo grows. That means understanding customer problems deeply, preventing support needs where possible, solving issues at their source within the product, and designing seamless journeys whether customers self-serve or speak to a customer support agent.Ā
AI and automation play a central role, empowering customers to resolve simpler issues independently, and equipping our operations teams with intelligent tools to handle more complex cases with confidence and speed. We design across the full ecosystem: customer journeys, internal platforms, routing, and the foundations that enable us to scale safely.
Thereās a real opportunity to shape how help works across Monzo, end to end.Ā
Ā
šYouāll play a key role by...
- Embedding the long-term design vision for support experiences at Monzo, shaping how customer-facing journeys, internal systems, and human service connect into one coherent ecosystem.
- Leading large, end-to-end design initiatives across ambiguous problem spaces, spanning AI-enabled help experiences, internal tooling, and operational workflows.
- Designing with a service mindset, understanding what happens beyond the interface and shaping the real-world impact of your design decisions.
- Designing across touchpoints; from the app, to the phone, to human support.
- Navigating tradeoffs and guiding strategic decisions in an opinionated way.
- Coaching the other Ops Collective designers by helping them to embed the vision in their work, running design crits and supporting them to shape their work.Ā
- Continuing to raise the bar for design craft and product excellence at Monzo, ensuring your work is a benchmark for quality and innovation across the organisation and our industry.
- Partnering with cross-functional leaders to define and execute product strategies that translate into actionable plans you help build and ship.
- Proactively addressing systemic challenges, reducing complexity, and creating better conditions for teams to deliver impactful work.
- Acting as a visible ambassador for Design, sharing your work and its impact across the company to maintain Designās place at the heart of Monzo.
- Mentoring and levelling up designers across the discipline, fostering a culture of growth, collaboration, and belonging.
