We are seeking a highly analytical and detail-oriented NYSC Member to join our Risk Management team as a Fraud Analyst. In the modern financial and digital landscape, fraud prevention is the frontline of organizational security. This role is designed for a "Digital Investigator", a proactive individual who can spot patterns, flag irregularities, and protect company assets from illicit activities.

Your mission is to support the Risk team in identifying and mitigating fraudulent transactions or behaviors.

If you have a background in Mathematics, Accounting, Computer Science, or Economics, we want you to start your career with us.

Requirements:

1. Transactional Surveillance & Data Analysis

• Pattern Recognition: Monitor real-time transaction flows to identify "out-of-character" behaviors or known fraud typologies.

• Data Mining: Utilize analytical tools to sift through large datasets, flagging anomalies that require further manual investigation.

• Risk Scoring: Assist in assigning risk levels to various accounts based on historical data and current activity.

2. Investigation & Identity Governance

• Case Management: Conduct deep-dive investigations into flagged accounts, verifying documents and cross-referencing information to confirm legitimacy.

• KYC/AML Support: Ensure all user activities comply with "Know Your Customer" (KYC) and "Anti-Money Laundering" (AML) protocols.

• Stakeholder Liaison: Work closely with the Customer Support and Legal teams to freeze suspicious accounts and resolve disputes.

3. Reporting & Strategy Optimization

• Incident Documentation: Prepare detailed reports on discovered fraud trends and successfully mitigated threats for management review.

• Tool Calibration: Provide feedback to the technical team to help "tune" fraud detection software and reduce false positives.

• Knowledge Sharing: Stay updated on the latest global fraud trends (e.g., phishing, identity theft, card-not-present fraud) and share insights with the team.

Qualifications and Skills:

Candidate Profile

• NYSC Status: Must be a currently serving NYSC member in Ibadan, Oyo State.

• Education: Degree in Accounting, Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Economics, or a related field.

• Integrity: Unwavering ethical standards and a high level of discretion in handling sensitive data.
