We’re looking for a talented, hands-on, and diligent Corporate Governance Manager with knowledge and experience of Irish company law and corporate governance requirements to join the Monzo Europe Company Secretarial Team.

This role offers an exciting and novel opportunity to play an instrumental role in a scaling company that’s key to Monzo’s expansion strategy. You’ll be part of a high-performing team who’ll support your development and ensure you have the opportunity to enhance your company secretarial skill set while taking ownership of some of Monzo Europe’s key governance processes.

Governance processes and procedures: With support from the Deputy CoSec, you’ll help to establish and maintain Monzo Europe’s governance policies, processes and procedures in line with regulatory requirements and internal Group governance standards.
