🌟 About the team:
Our Global DPO Office
As Monzo grows into new countries, new products and innovative technologies, including AI, we work to find a careful balance between meeting our regulatory obligations and supporting innovative, customer-centric solutions that help make money work for everyone.
At Monzo, we use the three lines of defence approach to manage risk. The Global DPO Office sits in the second line Compliance function, and this role reports directly to the Data Protection Officer.
The Global DPO Office supports the DPO in meeting their responsibilities and provides independent oversight of data protection compliance across Monzo. We work closely with the first-line Data Protection team, Legal, and teams across the bank to help Monzo understand, evidence and strengthen its data protection compliance.
We’re building the foundations for a global DPO Office that can scale, bringing more consistency to how we work across the UK and Europe through global processes, clearer governance and a group risk framework.
About the role...
We’re looking for a hands-on Senior Manager who can lead important work across the DPO Office and the wider bank. You’ll turn broad goals into clear plans, work through complex and ambiguous problems, and deliver improvements with pace, structure and good judgement.
This is a senior individual contributor role in a small and mighty team with high standards and a practical, proportionate way of working. You’ll provide advice, oversight and challenge, build trusted relationships across Monzo, and help improve how the Global DPO Office operates as we scale.
It’s also a great opportunity for someone who wants to deepen their existing experience across DPO-level responsibilities. You’ll deputise for the DPO from time to time, while helping build the processes, governance and ways of working needed for a global DPO Office.
