The role blends investigation, data analysis, and cross-functional collaboration, helping thousands of partner companies operate safely. It suits someone who enjoys pattern-spotting, navigating ambiguity, and continuously improving risk systems.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end execution of company reviews, payroll monitoring, and related risk processes with clear written and verbal communication across internal teams, partners, and customers
• Analyze data to surface and act on emerging risk signals tied to specific companies and payrolls
• Investigate and mitigate fraud incidents such as account takeover, first-party fraud, and impersonation, then document findings and drive resolutions with cross-functional partners
• Contribute to internal documentation, case notes, and feedback loops that refine risk processes over time
• Support ad hoc analyses and small process-improvement projects alongside senior team members

• Strong time management and comfort handling several cases simultaneously
• Clear, professional communication with both internal stakeholders and external parties
