This is an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the UK banking and finance industry’s collective response to fraud. You will initially focus on authorised push payment (APP) fraud, supporting work on prevention and reimbursement through research, analysis, drafting and engagement with member firms.
Working with colleagues and industry experts, you will help turn complex fraud issues into clear policy positions and practical action.
Although APP fraud will be the initial priority, you will have the opportunity to build expertise across a broad and evolving fraud agenda. You will take ownership of defined tasks and deliverables, contribute to authorised, unauthorised and cross-cutting fraud priorities, and receive guidance from senior colleagues on complex or sensitive issues.
Key Responsibilities
- Support agreed fraud policy and operational workstreams by taking ownership of defined tasks and smaller areas of work. Maintain clear plans, actions, milestones, risks and dependencies, escalating issues where appropriate.
- Research and monitor regulatory, legislative, industry, operational and threat developments, summarising the key implications for members and identifying questions, evidence gaps and issues for further consideration.
- Prepare high-quality first drafts of policy papers, briefings, presentations, member updates and stakeholder correspondence where appropriate, turning complex information into clear and accurate content for review.
- Support member working groups and industry forums by coordinating meetings and papers, recording decisions and actions, ensuring timely follow-up, and maintaining accurate governance records and contact information.
- Gather, organise and analyse member feedback, operational evidence and data, identifying themes, differences in member experience and emerging issues and presenting findings clearly.
- Build constructive working relationships with member firms, colleagues and external stakeholders, responding professionally to enquiries and coordinating input within agreed timescales.
- Support cross-industry initiatives and practical fraud-prevention activity, including pilots or projects, by documenting scope, objectives, governance, resourcing assumptions and success measures.
- Develop subject-matter knowledge across APP fraud, payment fraud and the wider fraud landscape, sharing relevant insight and contributing ideas for policy, advocacy and operational activity.
- Represent UK Finance in agreed member or external meetings as experience develops, providing clear readouts and escalating significant or sensitive issues promptly.
- Contribute flexibly across the Fraud and wider Economic Crime teams, providing timely research, briefing and coordination support as priorities change.
