Reporting to the Head of Customer Risk & Governance, you'll lead the day-to-day Fraud Operations function, protecting the business from fraud losses while supporting an excellent customer experience and the sustainable commercial success of the business. You'll drive operational excellence and continuous improvement, and help shape the future Fraud operating model — all while staying actively involved in investigations, operational decisions and process design as the function matures.What You'll Be Doing
- Building and continuously maturing the Fraud Operations function, including processes, controls and ways of working
- Leading or supporting complex fraud investigations — payment fraud, account takeover, chargebacks, bonus abuse, identity fraud and other online fraud typologies
- Making decisions on account closures, withdrawal approvals, account and payment method restrictions, and chargeback responses within delegated authority
- Monitoring fraud trends and emerging threats, recommending enhancements to fraud controls and detection capabilities
- Overseeing the implementation and optimisation of fraud technologies, payment controls and automation initiatives
- Balancing fraud prevention with customer experience and commercial objectives through proportionate, risk-based decision making
- Monitoring performance against KPIs, SLAs and quality standards, and driving corrective action where needed
- Leading workforce planning, resourcing and rostering across the team
- Recruiting, coaching and developing a team of up to 12 Fraud Analysts
- Ensuring Fraud Operations readiness for new products, payment methods, brands and regulated markets
- Partnering closely with MLRO, Compliance, Legal, AML, RG, Payments, Product and Data Analytics teams, plus external PSPs, fraud vendors and card schemes
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience leading and managing an operational Fraud team within a regulated environment
- Subject-matter expertise across complex fraud investigations, including payment fraud, account takeover, chargebacks, bonus abuse and identity fraud
- Experience designing, implementing and continuously improving operational processes through automation, root cause analysis and continuous improvement methodologies
- Experience establishing, scaling or transforming an operational function, including new processes, controls and technologies
- Experience defining team objectives and managing performance against agreed KPIs and service levels
- Strong stakeholder management across Customer Support, Payments, Product, Compliance, Data Analytics and external suppliers
- Demonstrated ability to build, develop and lead high-performing operational teams
Why Apply
This is a rare opportunity to help shape the future Fraud operating model for a business actively investing in its Customer Risk capability — with genuine scope to influence process, tooling and strategy rather than just inherit an existing setup.
