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 ❤️

We’re hiring a Senior Programmatic Exec to join the Monzo team! We’re looking for someone who can support the planning, buying and technical ad set up of cross-channel programmatic and YouTube campaigns. This is a great opportunity for someone with good technical skills to expand their remit across the full campaign lifecycle.

Programmatic is a growing buying point for Monzo, enabling us to better reach our target audience. We have a diverse product offering, so it’s important that we reach users with the right touchpoints to help them untangle their financial lives.

As we drive traffic through to both app stores and web we need to ensure our user journey is frictionless and trackable whilst making sense within our overall marketing strategy. Programmatic will contribute to business metrics from awareness all the way through to acquisition, and it’s important that we understand both the short and long term impact of campaign activity - evaluated through media metrics as well as testing.
