## About the role

#### 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](https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/lendable.co.uk))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

#### About the Role

We are looking for a meticulous and curious **Fraud Investigations Associate** to serve as our primary defense against identity theft and organized fraud rings. While our FinCrime team sets the high-level policy, you are the investigator in the trenches, identifying synthetic identities and stopping fraudsters before they can enter our ecosystem.

In this role, you will handle the "pre-onboarding" and "post-onboarding" lifecycle for both our U.S. personal loans and credit card products. You’ll be tasked with uncovering complex fraud patterns—ranging from simple ID theft to sophisticated, large-scale fraud rings. This is a role for someone who loves "connecting the dots" and protecting both the company’s bottom line and our customers' identities.

#### What You’ll Be Doing

- Identity & Application Fraud: Investigate suspicious applications at the point of onboarding to detect synthetic identities and third-party identity theft.

- Special Investigations: Conduct deep-dive investigations into suspected fraud rings and organized criminal activity, collaborating closely with senior leadership on high-stakes cases.

- Case Management & KYC: Manage the end-to-end investigation of suspicious activity. Gather "Know Your Customer" (KYC) documentation and prepare comprehensive case files for SAR consideration by the 2LoD team.

- Screening: Perform the initial clearing of Sanctions and PEP alerts, ensuring we are not facilitating prohibited transactions.

- Consumer Protection: Handle CFPB and Credit Reporting Agency (CRA) disputes specifically related to fraud claims, ensuring fair and timely resolution for victims of identity theft.

- Customer Outreach: Communicate directly with U.S. consumers to verify identity details and confirm the legitimacy of high-risk applications.

#### What We’re Looking For

- Investigative Grit: 2+ years of experience in fraud investigations, specifically within U.S. fintech, personal loans, or credit cards. Or, equivalent FinCrime investigative experience in US Law Enforcement.

- Technical Literacy: Experience using identity verification tools like Alloy or Socure. You know how to read an identity report beyond just the "Pass/Fail" score. Familiar with ID databases, how to navigate them, and how to conduct thorough investigations for fraud patterns.

- Detail Oriented: Ability to document complex investigations clearly so that business leadership, regulators and bank partners can easily follow your logic.**Regulatory Knowledge:** Understanding of the FCRA (Fair Credit Reporting Act) and how it pertains to fraud disputes and consumer protection.

**Salary** - $80,000 to $120,000 per year

#### Life at Lendable

- Winning team: the opportunity to scale up one of the world’s most successful fintech companies

- Flexible working: flexible approach tailored to each role. Hybrid roles require three days in-office weekly; fully remote roles include regular opportunities for in-person connection through socials and off-sites

- Socials & connection: opportunities and events to come together, socialise, and get to know each other beyond the office walls

- Health coverage: support for your physical and mental wellbeing, including private health cover

- Retirement & savings: long-term financial wellbeing through retirement savings plans

- Employee referral programme: earn a competitive bonus when you refer successful new team members

- Office meals & snacks: enjoy a fully stocked kitchen, plus complimentary lunches prepared by in-house chefs on in-office days at select locations

- Sustainable commuting: cycle-to-work and electric vehicle salary sacrifice schemes available in select locations***Please note:** The availability and details of specific benefits vary by location and role. For more information, please speak to your Talent Partner.*
