The posting

About the engagement

Capitex is a specialist Financial Crime Compliance talent provider. We are engaging a consultant-level Fraud Data Analyst for a 6-month engagement at the centre of a leading regional bank's 24/7 digital fraud operation - a build-phase environment where the data and analytics layer is being created, not inherited.

This is a 6-month consultancy engagement with a defined delivery model: the first two months are delivered fully remotely from the UK, and from Month 3 the role relocates onsite to the bank's offices in Kuwait City for the remainder of the term. Onsite presence in Kuwait from Month 3 is a firm requirement of the role, not a preference - please only apply if you are genuinely able and willing to relocate for the onsite phase. Working pattern is standard bank hours, Sunday to Thursday, with start-time flexibility for UK-based delivery during the remote phase.

The role

You will be the senior data capability of the fraud operation - a consultant, not a colleague: expected to own the analytics agenda, drive it forward, and mentor the bank's own analysts as you do. The operation runs a modern fraud estate spanning behavioural biometrics on the digital channels, an enterprise card fraud monitoring platform, a newly implemented fraud case management system, and the bank's core and online banking data. Your job is to make that estate speak: correlate data across all of it, find the fraud patterns, and convert what you find into detection.

What you will do

  • Query, extract and correlate data across multiple systems and databases - digital channel telemetry, card fraud alerts, case management records, core and online banking data - to identify fraud patterns, emerging typologies and detection gaps.
  • Convert analysis into action: build the evidence base for new and tuned detection rules, and deliver concrete rule recommendations to the operation's rule-writers, with measured impact on false positives and detection rates.
  • Design and build the dashboards, views and management reporting on rule performance, alert outcomes and fraud losses that the operation's leadership runs on.
  • Take a central role in the bank's new Microsoft Fabric data lake programme - designing and building the fraud analytics layer on it over the coming months.
  • Mentor and upskill the bank's own analyst team - knowledge transfer is an explicit and valued part of this seat, including through the operation's pairing arrangements.
  • Support post-incident and thematic reviews with data deep-dives, working alongside the team's L1/L2 analysts and senior fraud investigator.

Requirements

What we are looking for

  • Consultant-level experience in fraud or financial crime data analytics - typically 5+ years - within banking, payments or fintech, with the seniority to own the analytics agenda and advise, not just execute.
  • Strong Python and strong SQL - both essential and both tested at screening.
  • A quantified track record: losses reduced, false positives cut, detection improved - with your name on the numbers.
  • Experience building operational dashboards and management reporting (Power BI, Tableau or equivalent).
  • Experience with fraud platform data structures is an advantage, not a requirement - the ability to interrogate unfamiliar systems' output matters more than any named product. Behavioural biometrics or card fraud platform exposure is a plus.
  • AML-blended analytics backgrounds are welcome where the data depth is genuine and a sound working understanding of fraud typologies sits alongside it.
  • Experience with cloud data platforms (Azure, Fabric, Databricks or similar) is a strong plus given the data lake programme ahead.
  • Clear English and the credibility to present analysis and recommendations to senior stakeholders.
  • Confirmed availability for an immediate start and genuine willingness to be onsite in Kuwait City from Month 3 to Month 6. A passport with 12+ months' validity is required.

Engagement details

  • 6-month consultancy agreement with Capitex, with extension possible on client renewal.
  • Competitive all-inclusive monthly consultancy fee, with an additional housing allowance during the onsite phase.
  • Flight to Kuwait and visa sponsorship for the onsite phase covered; visa is client-sponsored.
  • Contracting through your own limited company is welcome - the end client is wholly overseas, so the UK off-payroll (IR35 Chapter 10) rules do not apply to this engagement; status assessment rests with your company.
  • Fees paid gross in USD with no deductions at source. Kuwait levies no personal income tax; your own tax position depends on your residence and is your responsibility.
  • Laptop provided by Capitex; client systems access configured by the bank.
