About Monstro
Monstro provides the AI-powered Financial Intelligence System for regulated financial institutions. It enables banks and wealth managers to deliver continuous, personalized, governed Financial Guidance to every client, not just the top tier, across their entire financial life: saving, borrowing, investing, planning, protecting, and preparing.
Meaningful Financial Guidance has only ever been available to a small portion of people. We are changing that, through the institutions people already trust. Institutions already have the relationships, the data, and the context to understand each client; Monstro turns that understanding into guidance that helps each person understand, decide, and act. For clients, that means clearer decisions, proactive support when life changes, and a better view of their financial lives. For institutions, it means deeper relationships, more clients served consistently, and more of each client’s financial life managed in one place.
What makes this possible is how the system is built. Governance is not an added feature; it is foundational. Every recommendation reflects the institution’s own views, policies, and permissions. Every output can be audited, traced, and reversed, and client data stays under the institution’s control. Generative AI is used to build and configure the system; at runtime, execution is deterministic, so every output can be explained and stood behind, not just trusted.
The Work
We are building for a high-stakes industry where the work has real consequences. Guidance only matters if people can trust it and institutions can govern it. The challenge is to make Financial Guidance more personal and more available without making it less trusted: to build AI that institutions can audit, explain, and reverse, in a domain where being wrong carries real cost. That is what makes the problem hard, and the work meaningful. This is not a simple AI problem; it takes product judgment, technical depth, regulatory discipline, design quality, and a team that moves quickly without lowering the bar.
Monstro is moving from vision to market: launching with financial institutions, growing the team, and building for the enterprise in one of the most regulated industries. You will be expected to think clearly, communicate directly, move with urgency, hold a high standard, and take responsibility for work that matters. We are an early team building something ambitious, and what you do here will shape both the product and the company.
The role:
Monstro is hiring a Director, Strategic Business Development to open the doors that allow our senior commercial team to sell. You will get Monstro into banks where we have no existing relationships, at the level where decisions are made.
This is not a lead-generation role. It is an access-generation role . You will be measured on meetings with the executives who own budget and priorities, not on emails sent or calls logged. This role will require occasional travel.
Access, not leads
Your work is measured in one unit: the qualified access meeting .
A first meeting with a named economic buyer or executive sponsor at a target-list bank, with at least one additional stakeholder from a different function engaged, that our senior commercial team accepts as a hand-off.
Each part has a rule behind it:
Target-list bank: only accounts on the agreed target list count.
Economic buyer or executive sponsor: titles are agreed in advance, such as head of wealth, head of retail banking, chief digital officer or CIO.
Second stakeholder: someone from a different function, such as risk, technology or a business line. Two people from the same team don't count.
Accepted hand-off: the senior commercial team confirms the opportunity is worth pursuing, within five business days, with a reason logged if they decline.
What doesn't count: emails, calls, sequences, social activity, events attended, meetings with junior staff, and meetings the senior team declines.
What you'll…
