• Collaborate closely with Risk, Data Science, Customer Care, Compliance, and other stakeholders to support fraud prevention initiatives and drive effective case resolution.
• Leverage internal tools, data analytics, automation, and AI-powered solutions to improve investigation quality, operational efficiency, and fraud detection capabilities.
• Document investigative findings clearly and accurately while maintaining adherence to internal policies, procedures, regulatory requirements, and service level agreements (SLAs).
• Ensure productivity, quality assurance, and operational performance standards are consistently achieved.
• Escalate emerging fraud threats, process gaps, and operational risks to relevant stakeholders and contribute to mitigation strategies.
• Identify opportunities to improve fraud operations processes, workflows, controls, and tooling through data-driven insights and continuous improvement initiatives.
• Support testing, implementation, and optimization of new fraud detection strategies, operational processes, and technology solutions.
• Provide support for additional fraud operations and risk management initiatives as required.

About You

• Bachelor's degree in a quantitative, analytical, business, or related field; equivalent experience considered.
• Experience in fraud operations, banking operations, dispute investigations or other financial services functions is preferred.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify patterns, investigate anomalies, and make sound decisions based on available information.
• Comfortable working with data and technology. Experience with SQL, Excel, data analysis, automation tools, or AI-powered solutions is a plus.
• Quick learner with the ability to adapt to evolving fraud trends, operational processes, and emerging technologies.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly document investigations and communicate findings to stakeholders.
• Highly detail-oriented with strong organisational and time management skills.
