Job Description Protect. Investigate. Lead. At CHEP, we don’t just protect assets, we protect trust. We’re looking for a Senior Asset Protection Investigator who thrives on solving complex puzzles, uncovering hidden risks, and staying two steps ahead of criminal activity.

• Design and execute proactive loss prevention and asset recovery programs across the region, ensuring the protection of CHEP’s proprietary information and intellectual property assets.
• Lead undercover investigations and complex surveillance operations to identify potential security risks and asset loss, coordinating follow-up actions where necessary.
• Monitor and implement fraud prevention measures, leading fraud investigations and prosecutions (both internal and external) to secure company assets and prevent further incidents.
• Gather, analyze, and categorize data related to criminal activities, building a comprehensive database to support ongoing and future investigations.
• Conduct internet security and social media investigations to identify and mitigate threats from criminal enterprises, using internal and external resources to address these activities.
• Manage post-incident follow-up, coordinating property recovery efforts and ensuring the timely resolution of asset loss cases.
• Serve as a subject matter expert on a broad range of security standards and disciplines, driving asset protection, loss control, and audit initiatives across the organization.
• Deploy electronic tracking equipment where authorized, following legal guidelines, and use the tools to support investigations and asset recovery efforts.
