Hi, How often do you open up opportunities for remote customer service representatives? I see currently you are registering interest.

Thanks in advance

I don’t think they have a set agenda, they just hire as and when they need to.

For example, they recently hired a bunch of people because they had a surge in new customers thanks to a TV ad campaign.

You’re best of signing up for notifications on their careers page so it will alert you when new positions open up 🙂

Oh, I see. Thanks for the reply. They are still recruiting on the agency boards but would prefer to work direct for the company as agency work is not as secure.

Monzo used to recruit remote Customer Service quite often but they put that on hold over the last year or so and have been prioritising hiring for their call centre in Cardiff. At some point they may go back to remote hiring but I’m sure it hasn’t been for a while so there is nothing set in stone as @Ordog states.

I thought they only reopened thier listing for remote hiring in June because of Cardiff? And even now it only states they are only allowing expresses of interest.

That’s interesting. Can you expand on the connection between June and Cardiff? Thanks.

I’ve been following remote working very lightly over the last year as I’m debating a career change but other than Monzo halting the hiring of remote working earlier this year (I found the forum link) to focus on Cardiff.

> Hi all, We know this is disappointing news, and we’re sorry to those of you that were waiting to hear back on your next steps. Like we said in the email, we’ve decided not to hire any more COps to work remotely for now. We’ve readjusted our forecasts a bit and we’re focussing on growing out our team in Cardiff. So we don’t think need more remote folks just at the moment. If you’ve applied to work as a remote COp, and Cardiff works as an option for you, please do let us know and we can transfe…

I don’t know much really other than the current listing on the website which I believe popped back around June according to the date on @josh7’s post .

Hopefully, @cookywook or @simonb could elaborate more.

AFAIK there’s been remote opportunities available at all times in the year that normal COp hiring has been available.

I know about 10 people that have started working for Monzo remotely this year as COps that have been hired at slightly varying periods of the year.

Yep. It was about 3 months ago that I was looking but unfortunately they’ve changed the hours you need to be available so it’s a complete non starter now because of childcare  
Think it said Cardiff on the ad because that’s where you train but when I read the details it was Cardiff or remote

I start work on 26th August as a remote COp. I understand they have recruited a lot more and the advert was open for at least a month.

Tip @anon35477550 if you use your Monzo email it will show your Monzo staff 👍

I applied back at the beginning of August just before they closed the Remote COP’s posting and changed it to expression of interest.

Still waiting to hear anything from it, just a couple of automated thanks for your application emails.

Hopfully I’ll hear something soon! 😃

It literally says at near the top of the ad.

Fairly sure a requirement for a fraud prevention role is keen eye for detail…

Customer facing roles don’t have the joy of being based in the London office.

It’ll be remote.
