About The Team

You will work in the Fraud team within Credit Risk which is a team of 5 (Credit Risk department consists of c.60 FTE), working on multiple priorities within a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Our team is responsible for development & control of fraud prevention initiatives & strategy.

This involves the analysis of previous fraudulent activity to create and implement industry-established and new innovative fraud prevention measures to the business, covering all areas of risk including new credit applications, card transactions for cash orders, impersonation fraudulent attempts and account takeovers. All work is closely linked to the operational fraud prevention team based in Bolton which uses the systems and strategies that are created to minimise any losses incurred.

We don’t expect you to know everything, we have a friendly team who will be able to support you and help you settle in and learn.

About The Role

As a Senior Fraud Analyst you will be making best use of the growing amount of data available to make more informed decisions to limit fraud losses across our brands, and to protect our customers and The Very Group from fraud.

You will work with the business to help us make the right decisions at the right times. Whether it’s providing performance analytics on strategies, or strategy optimisation, you’ll be encouraged to provide insight and recommendations on customer and commercial outcomes, communicating these in a compelling, impactful way to senior stakeholders.

You’ll work on multiple priorities within a fast paced, dynamic environment. You’ll need to be able to manage the expectations of stakeholders alongside prioritising your workload. You will play your part to meet the broader needs of the business and deliver a world-class, personalised experience for our customer.

You have a degree in a numerate subject area, are highly proficient with SQL or SAS with advanced Microsoft Excel skills too. Experience of FICO products such as Blaze Advisor or other credit lending decision engines would be advantageous.

We’re also interested in your softer skills - your ability to collaborate and build effective working relationships, work with challenging stakeholders along with the ability to solve complex problems and relay solutions in a simple, clear and concise way.

Working at pace with competing and changing priorities doesn’t faze you - you thrive in that type of environment, you’re not afraid to challenge the status quo.

Customer outcome focussed and commercially aware with the ability to present your findings into business recommendations, you’re comfortable in dealing with stakeholders at all levels.

There is very little hierarchy here and if you were to join us, you would be encouraged to have a voice and the confidence to use it.
