At Moneybox, our mission is to give everyone the means to get more out of life. We're guided by our belief that wealth isn't about the money, it's about the means to more - more freedom, opportunities, possibilities, and peace of mind. Moneybox is an award-winning wealth management platform, helping over one and a half million people build wealth throughout their lives, whether they’re saving and investing, buying their first home, or planning for retirement.
MBSCL is establishing its own dedicated, independent Compliance function as it moves through FCA authorisation to provide regulated financial advice. This role holds the SMF16 (Compliance Oversight) and SMF17 (Money Laundering Reporting Officer) functions for MBSCL, and is a distinct individual from the equivalent functions at Digital Moneybox Limited (DML) - independence from DML is a deliberate feature of this role, not an administrative detail.
DML is the main Moneybox operating business: it runs the app and digital platform, and provides the savings, investment and pension products Moneybox customers use day to day. MBSCL’s is a separate entity set up to provide regulated financial advice to those same customers. DML acts as a supplier to MBSCL under an intra-group agreement, providing the platform, customer onboarding, and a range of shared services (including IT, finance, HR and customer support) that MBSCL relies on to operate.
You will report to the MBSCL SMF1 for day-to-day business partnering, with a direct line of accountability to the MBSCL Board for the discharge of the SMF16 and SMF17 functions specifically, to preserve genuine independence. As part of working in a matrix group, you will also be part of the broader Risk and Compliance team and have a dotted line to the VP of Risk and Compliance for the Moneybox Group. This is a newly created role and includes oversight of the intra-group agreement with DML, compliance advisory support to the advice business, and compliance oversight (including the controls around the Aurora advice engine).
In your first six to twelve months, you'll focus on standing up the compliance function (including MBSCL’s independent financial crime framework), establishing effective oversight of the intra-group agreement with DML, and building the working relationships with MBSCL's co-sourced second line financial crime partner and outsourced internal audit provider that let MBSCL demonstrate genuine, evidenced independence to the FCA.
At Moneybox, we promote, support and celebrate inclusion, diversity and equity for all, so that everyone can bring their full selves to work.

Moneybox is a wealth management platform, but we’re guided by our belief that wealth isn’t about the money. It’s about the means to more – more freedom and possibility, more opportunities and more peace of mind.
And we’re on a mission to give everyone the means to get more out of life.
Millions of us go through life feeling like we should be doing more to get on top of our money. But we leave it at the bottom of our to-do lists, because we're not sure where to get started or how to take the next step.
This isn’t surprising when:
Most of us weren’t taught about saving and investing at school.
We’re confronted by a complex, fragmented, and confusing industry.
Getting help making decisions about money has traditionally been reserved for a privileged few.
This leaves us feeling anxious and uncertain, and we end up with less money for the things that really matter to us.
At Moneybox, we believe that building wealth throughout life, and all of the freedom, opportunities, and peace of mind that come with it, should be possible for everyone.
We launched in 2016 and helped thousands of people start investing with just their spare change. Today, we’re now helping more than one million people build wealth throughout their lives. Whether they’re saving and investing, buying their first home, or planning for retirement, our customers will get a service they can rely on, that supports them through every step, and celebrates with them along the way.
