āAbout the team
Monzo is expanding beyond the UK to make money work for all Europeans. Our Next Markets team is focused on understanding where and how we can build a successful business in new markets.
We work across Research, Strategy, Product, Data, Design and Marketing to make some of Monzoās most consequential expansion decisions about our entry strategy: where the strongest opportunities lie and how our proposition should evolve.
Weāre looking for a Lead Market Researcher to own the customer and market evidence that sit at the heart of these decisions. This is an opportunity to set research direction for new-market entry, establish how we build confidence in unfamiliar markets, and influence our expansion strategy.
šYouāll play a key role by...
- Leading the research that shapes our entry strategy for new markets, starting with discovery across new EU markets
- Developing and evolving a repeatable market-entry research approach, prioritising the questions that matter most and balancing depth, speed and confidence
- Building a clear view of local money behaviours, banking expectations, customer needs, trust drivers and barriers to adoption
- Identifying, understanding and sizing priority customer audiences, partnering closely with Data, Strategy and Product
- Assessing how well Monzoās current and near-term proposition fits local customer needs and market expectations
- Setting a high bar for evidence quality, triangulating across sources and challenging assumptions where the evidence does not support them
- Synthesising complex and sometimes conflicting evidence into clear recommendations, trade-offs and confidence levels, and use them to shape business, product and marketing decisions
- Choosing the right research approach for each question, combining hands-on research with AI, specialist expertise and agency support where these add value
š¤© Weād love to hear from you ifā¦
- Significant experience in customer research or consumer insight, with a track record of shaping strategy and business outcomes
- Experience tackling ambiguous, early-stage problems such as market entry, proposition development, innovation or audience strategy
- Experience conducting research across multiple markets and navigating meaningful cultural and market differences
- Strong quantitative research skills, including segmentation and audience sizing
- Strong methodological judgement - ability to choose the right approach for the question and recognise when specialist qualitative or other expertise is needed
- Ability to connect customer insight to product, proposition, brand, marketing, commercial and go-to-market decisions
- Strong synthesis and communication skills, turning complex research and data into clear narratives, recommendations and trade-offs
- Confidence influencing and constructively challenging senior cross-functional stakeholders
- Strong judgement in fast-moving environments, including knowing when deeper research is needed and when directional evidence is enough
