Role Overview

As a Fraud Risk Analytics and Insights Manager you will be responsible for driving proactive fraud risk management by challenging first-line controls, analysing fraud data and trends, investigating significant events, and translating findings into clear, evidence‑based recommendations across payments, cards and credit products.

Key Responsibilities

  • Analyse fraud loss, alerts and case data to identify emerging patterns, root causes, and control gaps across products, channels and customer segments.
  • Independently challenge first‑line fraud rules and strategies (e.g. transaction monitoring, card/radar rules, onboarding checks), providing quantitative impact analysis and optimisation recommendations.
  • Lead deep‑dive reviews of major fraud incidents and campaigns, documenting modus operandi, control breakdowns, and lessons learned, and tracking remediation to closure.
  • Produce dashboards, scorecards and periodic fraud risk reports for senior management and risk committees, highlighting key trends, KRIs and residual risk.
  • Work closely with Product, Credit, and Fraud Operations on new and existing credit journeys (application, underwriting, line management) to identify fraud vulnerabilities and recommend preventive and detective controls.
  • Support design and testing of new controls (e.g. rules, models, step‑up authentication, documentation checks), including measurement of false‑positive and customer‑experience impact.
  • Maintain and enhance the fraud risk taxonomy, control library, and minimum control standards in line with regulatory expectations and industry best practice.
  • Act as a second‑line fraud subject‑matter expert in change initiatives, ensuring fraud risk is adequately assessed in product changes, new features, and technology upgrades.
  • Liaise with Legal, Compliance and Operations on significant fraud cases, supporting regulatory reporting and internal governance documentation.

Qualifications And Experience

  • 5+ years’ experience in fraud risk, fraud analytics, credit risk or related roles in banking, fintech or payments.
  • Strong SQL and data analysis skills; experience working with large transaction and case‑management datasets.
  • Proven ability to design and assess fraud rules and controls (e.g. card fraud, account takeover, application fraud, mule activity).
  • Solid understanding of credit lifecycle and digital onboarding processes, including common fraud typologies.
  • Experience completing incident root‑cause analyses and writing structured, executive‑level reports.
  • Ability to translate complex data into clear, actionable insights for non‑technical stakeholders.
  • Strong stakeholder‑management skills, comfortable challenging first‑line teams in a constructive, collaborative way.
  • Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative, business, or risk‑related field (e.g. Finance, Economics, Statistics, Computer Science).
  • Professional certifications in fraud, risk or analytics (e.g. CFE, FRM, or similar) are an advantage.
