⭐Monzo’s Borrowing Credit & Data team

Our Borrowing Credit & Data team is the largest and most diverse team within Monzo’s Data Discipline, and is also one of the largest parts of the Borrowing Collective.
This team sits at the core of our lending business. We design products, decide who to lend to, set underwriting policy, track the volume of new originations, identify customers who need help, manage the portfolio, measure risk and compute the core metrics required both for Monzo’s senior management and for our external financial reporting. We set prices, build predictive models, run experiments, build dashboards, enhance data pipelines and manage Monzo’s credit risk. 

Our Data team's mission is to Enable Monzo to Make Better Decisions, Faster

We are scaling up our Capital, Impairment and Forecasting modelling team to support the rapid growth and evolution of our portfolio. This role is pivotal for the team as the successful candidate will build up our forecasting capabilities and  tools and will have significant exposure to critical business processes such as budgeting & ICAAP. Additionally the successful individual will lead the development and integration of the next generation of analytical dashboards, ECL decomposition and will have regular interaction with the senior management.

🔑You’ll play a key role by...

• Development, implementation and maintenance of Stress Testing and Forecasting models
• Participate in business critical processes such as ICAAP and Budgeting, including presenting results to 2LOD, senior management and Execs 
• Develop the next generation of performance tracking and analytics toolbox. These would include short horizon forecasting, root cause analysis, ECL decomposition, SICR efficiency.
• Develop and maintain economic-response models for scenario simulation and impairment 
• Actively involved in our monthly provisions process, and delivering outcomes to Monzo’s senior team (including our Head of Borrowing, CFO and CRO). These activities will include preparing analysis; proposing model adjustments / calibrations; discussing emerging regulatory changes and best practices (SS1/23; ‘Dear CFO letter’); presenting materials to the monthly impairment council.
• Review and challenge a wider range of modelling solutions across the Borrowing collective (including IFRS 9, NPV, pricing etc.)
• Close collaboration with portfolio strategy, model validation, finance and external audit teams

🤩We’d love to hear from you if…

• You have a strong background in IFRS9 impairments and stress testing
• You have extensive experience in developing, validating or monitoring Credit Models (impairment, stress testing, forecasting)
• You have strong analytical skills and a track record of using these to deliver technical projects
• You have a solid technical toolkit. SQL and either Python or R is a must-have, a data visualisation tool (such as Tableau, PowerBI, Looker) is a plus
• You can convey problems and solutions using clear and simple language, both written and verbal (see Monzo’s tone of voice guide). This is particularly important for communicating complex issues and priorities to non-experts
• You're impact driven and eager to have a real positive impact on the company, our products, our users and your team-mates
• You have a self-starter mindset; you proactively identify issues and opportunities and tackle them without being told to do so
• You're a team player whom your colleagues can rely on
