  • Analyze account and transaction information to determine whether to block an account or contact the customer to validate activity.
  • Detect, prevent and mitigate fraudulent activity to minimize financial loss and customer impact.
  • Contact customers proactively, take ownership of their concerns and work toward resolution at the first point of contact.
  • Investigate new Mastercard acquisitions to assess application validity and potential fraud risk.
  • Review ad hoc fraud referrals, including suspected fraudulent application lists, and accurately mark confirmed fraud applications for monitoring and tracking.
  • Identify and escalate emerging fraud trends, large-scale attacks and potential points of compromise to management.
  • Collaborate with team members to identify other Tangerine products at risk and take timely action before fraudulent activity occurs.
  • Communicate with internal departments to resolve fraud-related inquiries and customer complaints.
  • Support the Fraud inbound team as required and achieve established service levels and performance indicators.
  • Apply the Bank’s risk appetite, risk culture and business controls when making day-to-day decisions.
  • Participate in team initiatives, support change and continuously develop your knowledge of fraud procedures, technologies and processes.

  • You have customer service experience, preferably within the financial services industry.
  • You have strong analytical, critical-thinking and decision-making skills, with close attention to detail and the ability to recognize risk.
  • You have effective interpersonal, verbal and written communication skills.
  • You have strong active-listening, customer acknowledgement and problem-resolution skills.
  • You can work effectively in a fast-paced environment and navigate multiple applications and systems.
  • You have working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel and other basic PC applications.
  • You are available to work non-standard hours, including weekends and statutory or general holidays, based on business needs.
  • You can work in a headset-based, hybrid environment. Part-time and fixed shifts may be available to support departmental requirements.
  • You can support departmental operating hours from Monday to Sunday, 8:00 a.m. to midnight, or overnight shifts from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m., where applicable. Operating hours may change based on business needs.
  • It would be an asset if you have post-secondary education in business or a related discipline, previous Retail Banking or Advice/Call Centre experience, or knowledge of systems supporting debit cards, credit cards and alternate delivery channel products.

What’s in it for you?

  • A rewarding career path with diverse opportunities for professional development
  • An organization committed to making a difference in our communities – for you and our customers.
  • A competitive rewards program includes annual bonus, flexible vacation, personal and sick days, and comprehensive benefits that start on your first day.
