⭐Our Strategic Workforce Planning team

  • Supporting the building and maintenance of the demand forecast across Customer Operations / Financial Crime and Fraud.
  • Building, maintaining and communicating hiring plans and planning training cohorts (working closely with COps management to understand current skills and readiness of the team) to ensure we have sufficient people to handle the work we receive.
  • Proactively collaborating with stakeholders across Delivery, Strategy, and Product, to understand workload/hiring impact of new processes, marketing activity, or rule changes.
  • Maintain documentation of changes that influence headcount requirements, ensuring capacity plans are appropriately tracked and are meeting business objectives.
  • Utilise and analyse data to identify areas of opportunity, support on change delivery tasks, model operational impact and deliver insight on changes through creation, maintenance and communication of operational dashboards.
  • Preparation of regular and ad-hoc reporting and recommendations for changes in average handle times, shrinkage, volumes or other demand drivers
  • Build and maintain dashboards for key reporting metrics such as service levels, scheduled hours, shrinkage and attrition.
  • Present capacity plans to the Operation and Tactical Planning teams, highlighting any risks to service performance and recommendations to mitigate them

  • Excellent English written & verbal communication skills
  • Values driven approach in line with Monzo’s core values

  • Comfortable collaborating with a broad range of stakeholders
  • Experience in identifying performance trends using data to solve problems and identify opportunities
  • Ability to provide specific actionable feedback to a wide range of audiences and levels
  • Ability to work well independently and work collaboratively as part of a team
  • Ability to work to deadlines and prioritise time sensitive workloads
  • Advanced skills in planning and organisation with the ability to re-prioritise workload and be able to effectively deal with change at short notice
  • It would be advantageous if you've worked in this type of role within a Financial Services setting
  • Fluency in MacOS, Slack, and GSuite tools and the ability to adapt to learn new systems and processes
