What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Risk and Fraud Analyst with a strong background in brand activation, customer support, and operations within the iGaming industry. Since starting my career in 2016, I have developed expertise in live chat leadership, fraud detection, and payment processing across sportsbook and casino platforms. My recent roles have focused on risk and compliance, where I have supported AML procedures, KYC verification, and transaction monitoring.
Throughout my career, I have successfully identified and blocked over 200 high-risk accounts, preventing fraudulent transactions valued at over €50,000. I have played a key role in refining internal fraud flagging systems, reducing false positives by 30%, and improving response times. I thrive in fast-paced, international teams and am currently enhancing my skills in SQL, data analysis, and cybersecurity to further my career in compliance and risk-focused roles.
