As a Risk Analyst, you will be an integral part of our Risk team.

  • Investigate high risk or suspicious transaction activity with merchants, issuing banks, and cardholders to determine the proper action.

  • Initiate funding holds/releases within authority levels and investigate any potential losses as appropriate.
  • Lead and resolve fraud investigations: fraud risk management, regulatory investigations, monitoring, preventing and mitigating economic and compliance risk from business customers and related investigative work.
  • Analyse performance of risk alert and losses to statistically recommend the appropriate alerts and parameters for the Risk Monitoring System.
  • Be responsible for setting merchant risk parameters according to merchants’ historical volume, activity and credit risk exposure.
  • Identify gaps in processes, opportunities for improvement and assist in the development, training, and implementation.
  • Perform other duties and special projects as required.

What we’re looking for:

  • Bachelor’s Degree or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • A minimum of 3 years of relevant experience in acquiring risk investigations, specifically in an online payment processing, e-commerce or banking environment.
  • Knowledge of various card brand rules and regulations.
  • Proven ability to analyse, evaluate and mitigate fraud risks.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Strong analytical, investigative and problem-solving skills with an ability to work in a team setting.
  • Ability to think logically and process information with a high degree of accuracy.
  • Strong organizational, analytical and communication skills as well as great problem solving and time management abilities.
  • Self-motivated, diligent, resourceful, and can learn internal systems quickly.
  • A creative/innovative approach to solving complex problems of both a strategic and technical nature.
