About us: 

We’re here to make money work for everyone and we're doing things differently. For too long, banking has been obtuse, complex and opaque.

We want to change that and build a bank with everyone, for everyone. Our amazing community suggests features, test the app and give us constant feedback so we can build something everyone loves.

We're focused on solving problems, rather than selling financial products. We want to make the world a better place and change people's lives through Monzo.

Outsourcing is key to enabling Monzo to meet its mission of making money work for everyone, as well as driving a cost efficient operation and delivering excellent customer service.

Our team is responsible for the management and oversight of our Customer Operation suppliers.

We ensure our suppliers are set up for success and deliver fantastic customer service.
