How we work 💻
Locations & Flexible Working: 
Our main tech hub is in London, but our engineers live everywhere in the UK— from Brighton to the Western Isles. 
We value meeting in person but we don't have a mandated requirement on office attendance, even if you're nearby. We believe you'll do your best work if you are where you want to be. If you live outside of London and we ask you to come into the office, Monzo will support you with the costs. ✨
Our offices are naturally social, especially Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, which happen to line up with our twice-weekly Monzo lunches & treat Thursdays 🍽️. Teams also schedule time together often for work and play – in or around the office, or online.
Set up a work schedule that delivers impact and fits your life:
At Monzo, we value connections, flexibility, and wellbeing. We keep our meetings during core hours to stay connected and believe in maintaining work/life balance. 
You’ll be empowered to manage your work in a way that suits you and your team, giving you the freedom for children drop-offs and pick-ups, walking your dog or adventurous cat, avoiding peak commuting times or gym slots, appointments, or supporting your family in an emergency. 🕒✨
If you prefer to work part-time, we'll make this happen whenever we can - whether this is to help you meet other commitments or strike a great work-life balance.
Work the way that works for you with Monzo! 💼
🙌What’s in it for you
💰£140,000 - £184,000 ➕ share options.
✈️ We’ll help you relocate to the UK.
✅ We can sponsor your visa. 
📍This role can be based in our London office, but we're open to distributed working within the UK (with ad hoc meetings in London) 
⏰We offer flexible working hours and trust you to work enough hours to do your job well, and at times that suit you and your team. 
📚£1,000 learning budget each year to use on books, training courses and conferences.
🏡We will set you up to work from home; all employees are given Macbooks and for fully remote workers we will provide extra support for your work-from-home setup. 
➕ Plus lots more! <a href="https://monzo.com/careers/">Read our full list of benefits</a>.
