Remote Analytics Engineering Manager, Growth & Marketing in Chester

We're on a mission to make money work for everyone. We're waving goodbye to the complicated and confusing ways of traditional banking. After starting as a prepaid card, our product offering has grown a lot in the last 10 years in the UK. 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.

Our goal in Growth and Marketing is to build Monzo into a global brand people love. We're the team that finds exciting new ways to bring customers to Monzo and keep them engaged once they join. We create the features and cool stuff that gets everyone talking about us. We also figure out the best ways to chat to our customers – what products to talk about and when to reach out. Data is super important in everything we do, and this role will lead the team making sure our Growth and Marketing folks can easily use data to inform their everyday decisions.

Our Analytics Engineering discipline works in the intersection between data, engineering and our collectives - Money, Borrowing, Operations and Financial Crime and beyond. The AE teams are responsible for building downstream data models from backend services with the desire to make our Data Warehouse a genuine competitive advantage for Monzo. We want a discipline capable of building a reliable and scalable Data Warehouse to support decision making in a cost-effective and performant manner.

Managers within Data have two primary responsibilities; people and technical products. Your focus will be on helping engineers with their personal and professional development, listening and guiding them through hard times and celebrating their successes. You will also be leading and participating directly in technical initiatives and helping Monzo shape its Data organisation, ensuring the team focuses on valuable work, shipping things with a level of care and attention to detail. There will be a strong focus on delivering best practice across all of our data discipline and helping bring a new level of maturity around Data Governance principles, working in collaboration with others to deliver this.

Working in a multi-disciplinary team, you will:

• Be a hands-on leader in building a discipline of exceptional analytics engineers working to make Data at Monzo the gold standard within the industry.
• Nurture between 3 to 4 engineers, supporting, coaching and developing high performing engineers through regular 1:1s, continuous feedback and relationships with others.
• Aid prioritisation of initiatives and projects, working closely with other leads for each of our Monzo collectives.
• Be hands-on through participating in the review cycle, architecture and design leadership and development of your own changes to the pipelines.
• Be part of the hiring team within Analytics Engineering.
• Work closely with other leads to deliver a scalable, consistent approach to governance and best practices.
• Drive effective project management of central Analytics Engineering projects, ensuring they're well scoped and delivered to deadlines.
• Establish yourself as a trusted partner to various collectives and the leadership team, with the capacity for getting things done, be it either hands-on or by leading others.

We all own and support the pipelines we contribute to, and on-call support out of hours will be expected from time to time as part of this role.
