Jane Moneypenny

Lieutenant RN Moneypenny, secretary to M, friend to Bond

Miss Jane Moneypenny is private secretary to M, Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service. Educated at Oxford University, she initially works at the Foreign Office, before being recruited by MI6 after WWII due to her language skills, intelligence and discretion. A trusted confidante, she is devoted to her top secret, eyes only, cabinet level job, and has little time for a personal life. Moneypenny enjoys a playful, flirtatious – though never consummated – relationship with 007.
