They review documentation, analyze client information, and monitor transactions to identify potential risks or suspicious activities.

Familiarity with KYC/AML software systems, databases, and sometimes certifications like CAMS is important for managing compliance processes efficiently. Strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and effective communication skills help you identify potential risks and collaborate with different teams. These skills and qualities are essential for ensuring regulatory compliance, preventing financial crime, and protecting the institution’s reputation.

What are some typical challenges faced by a KYC Operations Analyst, and how can they be managed effectively?

KYC Operations Analysts often encounter challenges such as handling large volumes of client data, staying updated with evolving regulatory requirements, and managing tight deadlines during client onboarding or periodic reviews. To manage these effectively, strong organizational skills are essential, along with continuous learning about new compliance standards. Collaboration with compliance teams and leveraging technology tools for document management can also help streamline processes and reduce errors.

Job description

Head of Fraud Operations

The Head of Fraud Operations runs the operational engine of fraud prevention across Collectors’ Marketplace, Power Packs, and emerging Financial Services lending business. This senior leader owns real‑time and manual‑review decisioning, fraud investigations, and AML alert operations; tunes rules and partners with Data Science on models; and builds the team, tooling, SLAs, and metrics that hold fraud losses down without imposing undue customer friction.

Responsibilities
  • Rules & model performance. Monitor rules and ML‑model performance, recommend and implement rule and threshold changes, and partner with Data Science / Risk Strategy on tuning and retraining.
  • Queue & SLA health. Manage review‑queue health, decision SLAs, and analyst productivity and quality.
  • Investigations & Response. Lead multi‑typology investigations into payment fraud, account takeover, seller/listing fraud, counterfeit and authenticity abuse, collusion and shill activity, promotion abuse, and laundering of value through high‑worth collectibles.
  • Account‑takeover response. Own ATO and account‑security operations — detection, containment, recovery, and customer remediation.
  • Cross‑team handoffs. Partner with Disputes Operations on fraud‑driven chargebacks and with Trust & Safety on enforcement and offboarding.
  • AML/KYC Operations. Run KYC / CIP review, transaction‑monitoring alert disposition, and sanctions / OFAC screening for the lending business and marketplace.
  • SAR support. Prepare and support suspicious‑activity reporting and maintain investigation documentation to AML and audit standards.
  • Tools, Vendors & Reporting. Manage fraud, identity, and device‑intelligence tooling and vendors; evaluate and onboard new signals and platforms.
  • Metrics & continuous improvement. Define and report fraud loss rate, false‑positive / decline rate, detection rate, review SLA, and recovery; drive continuous improvement against targets.
  • Team building. Build, lead, and develop the fraud‑operations team; scale headcount and managed‑services support in line with volume growth.
Qualifications
  • 7+ years in fraud operations or investigations, including leadership of analysts or teams.
  • Hands‑on experience with fraud‑detection systems (rules engines, ML‑based decisioning), case management, and manual review at scale.
  • Strong command of fraud typologies in payments and marketplace settings — account takeover, payment fraud, and seller fraud in particular.
  • Working knowledge of AML / KYC operations and the SAR process.
  • Data fluency: able to analyze fraud trends and translate them into rule and threshold changes; comfortable with SQL and dashboards.
  • Preferred: High‑volume, high‑AOV consumer marketplace or fintech/lending fraud experience.
  • Preferred: Certifications such as CFE (fraud) or CAMS (AML).
  • Preferred: Experience standing up or materially scaling a fraud‑operations function.
  • Preferred: Familiarity with collectibles/authenticity fraud or abuse of chance‑based products.
Salary Range

$139,641 - $200,711 (subject to location, level, experience, and skill set). Additional compensation such as bonuses or commissions may apply.

Benefits
  • Health Insurance – Medical, Dental, and Vision.
  • Fertility assistance, commuter, and educational assistance.
  • 401(k) matching plan.
  • Flexible time‑off and ten paid holidays.
