Business professional with 10+ years in e-commerce Risk/Fraud prevention operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a business professional with over 10 years of experience in e-commerce risk operations, investigations, and customer service. My career has been dedicated to operational management and fraud prevention, where I have successfully led teams and implemented strategies that significantly reduced fraudulent activities. At Amazon, I managed a high-performing team of 20 associates, achieving $85,000 in savings through a project aimed at curbing fraudulent transactions. My ability to coordinate with various teams has ensured optimal process flow and adherence to service level agreements.
In my previous roles, I have trained over 150 new hires and developed an innovative investigations model that improved performance by 33%. I pride myself on my skills in stakeholder communication and process improvement, which have been instrumental in my career. Currently, I am pursuing an MSc in International Business at the University of Hertfordshire, which complements my professional expertise and enhances my ability to contribute effectively in a remote role focused on fraud prevention.
