What We Are Looking For (12-month contract renewable contract role)

We are seeking a detail-driven Risk Analyst to join a regional risk management function.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys investigation, fraud analysis, and connecting data points to uncover suspicious patterns. You will be involved in fraud intelligence gathering, case verification, risk research, and cross-functional collaboration to strengthen fraud detection and prevention measures.

The Mission

• Fraud Intelligence: Gather ground insights, investigate reported fraud activities, and identify emerging fraud patterns across the platform.

• Risk Defence: Support frontline risk monitoring by validating information, reviewing suspicious cases, and helping the business take action against bad actors.

• Data-Driven Investigation: Use factual evidence, reporting, and data analysis to support fraud research and risk decision-making.

• Cross-Functional Impact: Work with product, analytics, data science, engineering, business, and operations teams to improve fraud detection and risk controls.

Key Responsibilities

• Fraud Case Review & Verification:

Review reported fraud cases, validate information from different sources, and support investigation activities related to suspicious behaviours or fraud schemes.

• Fraud Intelligence Gathering:

Collect evidence, analyse ground intelligence, and identify common fraud patterns, profiles, and behaviours across the platform.

• Risk Research & Insights:

Conduct research into fraud trends and risk signals, then translate findings into clear insights that support better risk prevention strategies.

• Stakeholder Collaboration:

Work closely with cross-functional teams such as product, analytics, data science, engineering, business, and operations to support fraud mitigation initiatives.

• Risk Control Improvement:

Identify gaps in existing fraud detection or review processes, and recommend improvements to reduce high-risk activities while minimising unnecessary manual reviews.

• Data & Reporting Support:

Use Excel and data analysis to support investigation findings, prepare clear reporting, and present facts in a concise and data-driven manner.

Requirements

• 3–5 years of experience in fraud risk management, risk operations, fraud investigation, payments risk, e-commerce risk, fintech risk, strategy, consulting, or analytics.

• Good understanding of fraud, payments, e-commerce, risk enforcement, risk policy, or platform abuse investigations.

• Strong Excel skills for data analysis. Exposure to SQL, Tableau, Power BI, dashboarding, or data querying will be an added advantage.

• Strong attention to detail, good investigation mindset, structured thinking, and ability to work through ambiguity in a fast-changing environment.

• Able to communicate findings clearly, work with cross-functional teams, and present factual insights to stakeholders in a concise and data-driven manner.
