  • Establish governance and controls for AI-enabled/automated processes (as applicable), including oversight routines, exception handling, documentation standards, and monitoring metrics.
  • Build strong cross-functional partnerships (SAR/AML, Compliance, Legal, Technology, Control Management, and business teams) to align requirements, resolve pain points, and drive adoption.
  • Lead continuous process improvement, including process definition/refinement, root-cause analysis, risk identification, and control development to ensure auditable operations.
  • Establish and manage operational KPIs/KRIs and service management routines (e.g., volume, cycle time, backlog/aging, rework, exception rates, quality) and deliver executive-ready reporting.
  • Implement and maintain a quality assurance program for intake/triage and investigative support (sampling, file hygiene, standards adherence, coaching loops) to strengthen consistency and defensibility.
  • Partner with technology to enhance tools and workflows for fraud alert intake, triage, and case support (automation, queue management, data quality, reporting enablement).
  • Manage staffing models, training, and capacity planning for resilience (surge coverage, critical coverage windows, cross-training), and lead meetings/working sessions with disciplined follow-through while coordinating with internal and vendor partners (as applicable).

Required Qualifications, Capabilities and Skills

  • 10+ years of management experience leading operations, intake/triage, investigations operations, fraud operations, or a similarly complex function within a large public or private sector organization.
