• Designing and operating processes for system access, configuration changes, data management, and ongoing governance
• Developing and maintaining a clear responsibility matrix for the GRC tool across Group entities
• Coordinating the relationship with the GRC vendor, including coordinating support tickets, product updates and improvements
• Performing core platform admin activities such as user provisioning, workflow maintenance and configuration governance
• Overseeing data quality and reporting within the tool, ensuring management information is accurate, consistent, and meaningful
• Maintaining user‑facing documentation, training materials, and process guidance
• Owning governance of configuration changes and assessing downstream impacts
• Identifying opportunities to streamline processes, automate tasks, and improve system usability
• Providing analysis and insight through system‑generated reporting to support risk management across Group Risk and the wider business
• Managing issue resolution, enhancement requests and vendor escalations
• Ensuring the tool continues to evolve in line with Monzo’s Enterprise Risk Management Framework and regulatory expectations

• A strong written and verbal communicator who can influence and manage stakeholders across all levels, collaborating effectively across the three lines of defence while maintaining Monzo's tone of voice.
