Fraud Strategy Analyst

About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We're building one of the world’s leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

• One of the UK’s newest unicorns with a team of just over 700 people

• Among the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK

• Profitable since 2017

• Backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs

• Loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot)

So far, we’ve rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance. We get money into our customers’ hands in minutes instead of days.

We’re growing fast, and there’s a lot more to do: we’re going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks with dated systems and painful processes.

Join us if you want to

1. Take ownership across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1

2. Work in small teams of exceptional people, who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo

3. Build the best technology in-house, using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting

We’re looking for a super-smart fraud strategy analyst who is great with numbers and loves problem-solving to come and have a big impact on our business. We want someone who has coding experience and uses it (we use Python and SQL) on a daily basis to generate insights from data and use that insight to drive meaningful change in our UK businesses. You’ll be working for an ambitious company, in a fast-paced environment, with minimal bureaucracy.

Your team's objectives

• Prevent fraud losses on the UK Cards portfolio whilst balancing great customer experience

• Use data and analytics to improve operational efficiency and streamline customer journeys

• Automating reporting and intelligence sharing for key stakeholders

How you'll impact those objectives

• Define the fraud strategy for our evolving portfolios

• Discover insights from data and develop strategies to answer the big questions and address key business questions

• Collaborate with a wider cross-functional team to implement your strategies in the market

• Monitor and assess the success of implemented strategies, and continuously discover further opportunities for improvement

What we're looking for

• A foundational understanding of SQL & Python, with the ability to apply them in day-to-day tasks

• Proven experience (1 year +) in shaping fraud strategies

• Understanding what truly matters and driving business outcomes

• Have a natural curiosity and love to dig into things to understand how they work

• Startup mindset. We’re a fast-growth tech startup so you’ll be super excited to work in an entrepreneurial environment and have a real impact on the business

Interview Process
