Senior Data Analyst, Finance (Regulatory & Financial Reporting)

We are looking for a Data Analyst to join and help scale our growing data team in finance. You’ll be at the intersection between finance and data, in particular developing and supporting tooling relating to regulatory reporting, financial reporting and risk management. You will collaborate closely with our Regulatory Reporting and Financial Reporting teams, since your work will directly support their ongoing processes and controls.

You will support process improvement by building and analysing data models (mostly in SQL) downstream of engineering interfaces and accounting systems.

Data at Monzo

Our Data team's mission is to

Enable Monzo to Make Better Decisions, Faster

We have a strong culture of data-driven decision making across the whole company. And we're great believers in powerful, real-time analytics and empowerment of the wider business. All our data lives in one place in BigQuery, our data warehouse. 90% of day-to-day data-driven decisions are covered by self-serve analytics through Looker which gives data scientists and analysts the head space to focus on more impactful business questions and analyses.

You’ll be working day-to-day within a multi-disciplinary team within finance, working closely with both accountants and analysts as well as backend and analytics engineers.

The role

You’ll be responsible for:

• directly support the implementation of a new regulatory reporting system;
• own the core pipeline, data tables and models that feed our regulatory and financial reporting;
• help us continue building out our data framework between our internal banking platform and financial ledger that supports all our reporting and analysis needs;
• support Monzo to stay ahead of upcoming regulatory reporting changes.

You will be at the intersection of analytics engineering and data analysis relating to our reporting. In addition to building out our core data assets, you will be responsible for digging deep into the data, understanding the financial and accounting implications of our products, proposing solutions to identified problems and finally measuring the outcomes of implemented solutions.

You’ll also work closely with engineers across the company to ensure that we are collecting all the necessary data that we will need for accurate and compliant reporting.

Finally, you will assist in introducing and monitoring company-wide KPI's (Key Performance Indicators) and KRI's (Key Risk Indicators) which will measure how the bank is performing and alert us if something goes off track.

You should apply if

• you have experience building robust datasets (in SQL) and using them for analysis to support financial reporting and/or commercial decision making
• you have strong grounding in SQL and are familiar with BigQuery and/or general data warehousing concepts
• you are happiest exploring data, making discoveries and understanding their implications
• have previously worked in an analytics/finance environment - for example in a tech start-up, management consulting or investment banking

Nice to haves

• you've acquired a certification or part-qualified in the relevant area such as ACA or CFA
• familiarity with a programming language such as Python and/or Go
• previous experience in banking or financial services
