Staff Product Designer
About the role
About Us
We’re on a mission to make money work for everyone. We’re waving goodbye to the complicated and confusing ways of traditional banking. 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!
Our Design Team
We’re a team of 115+ designers, researchers, and brand experts led by Chief Design Officer Vuokko Aro. Product Design is the largest discipline within the design organisation, with designers working in tight-knit squads alongside researchers, product managers, and engineers to solve real customer problems at scale.
We design for the "magic moments"
We’ve 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, we’re growing fast and looking for passionate designers to shape Monzo’s future and there’s a huge opportunity to make your mark.
