  • Working closely with fraud operations, risk, compliance and data teams to ensure insight is well understood and acted upon.

  • Supporting documentation and reporting required for governance, audits and regulatory review.

  • Proven capability in building and maintaining clear, reliable reporting for business stakeholders.

  • Experience working with large datasets in a regulated or risk-aware environment.

  • The ability to communicate insight clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

  • A genuine interest in fraud, financial crime, risk or compliance, with a desire to develop specialist knowledge in this area.

  • Experience with Excel, Power BI or other visualisation tools.
