- Lead complex customer communications and collaborate with Support, FS Merchant Services, Product, risk analysts, and other teams to resolve shared problems.

- Contribute to incidents, complex reviews, trend investigations, projects, process improvements, and team best practices while prioritising competing work effectively.

- 2 years of experience in payments, fraud, credit risk, compliance, or financial services operations or related discipline.

- Exposure to structured workflows, case management, queues, or service-level targets.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
