Job Description

As a FinCrime Investigator, you are our financial mystery solver. You’ll play a key role in conducting thorough and timely investigations into suspected fraudulent and illicit activities. Your mission is to 'connect the dots' between disparate data points, applying a deep investigative methodology to resolve medium-to-high complexity cases while ensuring all actions meet strict regulatory and internal standards.

Job Responsibility

  • Leading end-to-end investigations into various fraud types, including Account Takeovers (ATO), sophisticated scams, refund fraud, and complex AML/CTF patterns
  • Gathering and analyzing data from multiple internal systems and external OSINT sources to build a clear, evidence-based story of the suspected illicit scheme
  • Documenting all investigation steps, findings, and evidence in a clear, concise, and defensible manner that is ready for legal or regulatory review
  • Assessing the financial and reputational impact of fraudulent activities and recommending immediate mitigation actions or recovery strategies
  • Preparing high-quality SAR/STR narratives for submission, ensuring the 'Who, What, When, and Why' of a crime is undisputable
  • Owning a specific 'Focal Area' to hunt for emerging trends and translating investigative findings into intelligence that sharpens our overall monitoring and prevention controls

Requirements

  • 2-3+ years of demonstrable experience in end-to-end fraud or AML investigations, preferably within Fintech, e-commerce, or banking
  • A strong understanding of fraud principles, AML/CFT regulations (FATF, EU Directives), and the Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) framework
  • Proficiency in data analytics using internal tools (like Looker, Splunk, HEX, or Redshift) and a basic understanding of the cybersecurity environment
  • Exceptional written communication skills to bridge the gap between technical data and actionable insights for senior management
  • The investigative curiosity to hunt for 'new-to-market' criminal typologies rather than just waiting for alerts
  • The ability to synthesize complex, disparate datasets into a logical and clear criminal narrative
  • Resilience under pressure, a proactive approach to learning new attack methods, and an unwavering commitment to ethics and confidentiality

What we offer

  • Unlimited paid time off
  • Psychological support & mental health webinars with Serenis
  • Flexible hybrid working system
  • Extended parental leave
  • Childcare leave
  • Professional development programmes
  • Internal mobility program
  • Language classes with Preply
  • Internal workshops & training
  • Stock Option Plan (with additional grants often provided based on performance)
  • International relocation support
  • Competitive salary
  • Meal vouchers
