Commission Amazon Fraud Investigator Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Corporate Investigator is an individual contributor responsible for investigating reports of internal theft, vandalism, fraud, suspicious activity, and violations of company policy in a high-tech corporate environment. Reporting to the GI Regional Manager - AMER, this role utilizes technology, analysis, interviewing, and assessment techniques to protect and safeguard personnel, information, and assets. Investigations range from moderate to complex in nature, with collaboration on high-profile or sensitive matters. This is an on-site role with occasional travel.

A day in the life
A typical day as a Corporate Investigator begins with reviewing your active caseload and prioritizing tasks based on urgency and complexity. You might start by reviewing CCTV footage related to a reported theft, then transition to conducting a witness/victim/person of interest interview for a separate fraud investigation. Throughout the day, you'll document findings in a case management system, collaborate with your regional team on emerging incidents, and consult with your Regional Manager on sensitive matters. You'll balance independent investigative work with team coordination, sharing insights, supporting peers on complex cases, and contributing to trend analysis that helps prevent future incidents. No two days are exactly alike, and the role requires adaptability, critical thinking, and a commitment to protecting people and assets across the enterprise.
