Fraud, risk and payments analyst protecting revenue while improving customer experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a fraud, risk and payments professional with seven years' experience across iGaming and fintech, focused on protecting revenue while preserving a smooth customer journey.
At Aspire Global / Aristocrat Interactive I monitored transactions, investigated account takeovers, bonus abuse, multi-accounting and payment fraud, and managed chargeback disputes end-to-end to reduce financial loss.
Previously I conducted CDD and EDD at Admiral Markets, performing sanctions and adverse media screening, source-of-funds checks and risk-rating for individuals and corporates in line with AML requirements.
Earlier roles in customer onboarding at British Telecom honed my operational discipline and customer-facing skills; I collaborate with cross-functional teams to turn data insights into pragmatic rules and controls that improve detection and reduce false positives.
