Job Description

Our client is growing and we are recommending a detail-oriented and driven Fraud Investigator to join their team. As part of the Fraud and Risk department, you will play a key role in preventing, identifying, and investigating financial fraud across branches. If you enjoy piecing together puzzles, analyzing data, and working both independently and collaboratively, this could be a great role for you.

This position begins as a contract role, with the potential to evolve into a full-time position based on performance and business needs in 2026. Opportunity does provide for hybrid flexibility while requiring flexibility for occasional in-office collaboration or travel to branch locations.

As a Fraud Investigator, you will:

• Monitor, review, and analyze fraud alerts to identify potential fraudulent activity.
• Investigate suspicious transactions, including online banking activity, ACH fraud, wire transfers, and positive pay alerts.
• Research, collect evidence, and document findings for suspicious activity cases.
• Work closely with internal clients, customers, and law enforcement to resolve cases.
• Prepare concise reports that summarize investigations, findings, and recommendations.
• Collaborate with charter-specific investigators and escalate cases when needed.
• Support ongoing fraud prevention efforts and contribute to team success.

This role will initially focus heavily on alert monitoring, with opportunities to participate in broader fraud investigations as you develop in the position.

Why join us?

Take on a meaningful role that blends analytics, problem-solving, and communication to combat financial crimes. You’ll have opportunities to expand your skills, tackle exciting challenges, and grow your knowledge as you work alongside dedicated fraud prevention professionals.

This is more than a job—it’s your opportunity to make an impact while developing your professional expertise. Connect with our team today by calling us directly at (563) 359-3995!

We’re looking for a candidate with the following qualifications:

Education: High school diploma required; additional banking, financial, or fraud-related coursework preferred.

Experience:

• 1+ years of experience in banking, financial institutions, or fraud investigations preferred.
• Familiarity with BSA/AML compliance, fraud mitigation, or similar areas is a strong plus.
• Knowledge of federal regulations like Regulation E is helpful, though training can be provided.
• Strong analytical skills and the ability to interpret financial data.
• Ability to create clear and concise reports and case documentation.
• Outstanding communication skills (written and verbal) for collaboration with clients and internal teams.
• Excellent organizational skills, ability to prioritize, and aptitude for working independently.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite (Teams, Word, Excel, Outlook).
