About the role

As the Head of Reported Fraud, you will be responsible for building and leading a high-performing team that manages all customer-reported fraud across Tide for the UK and EU markets. This includes end-to-end ownership of fraud investigations, issuing and acquiring chargebacks, and the operation of our fraud rapid response function supporting customers in real time.

You will oversee the design, implementation, and continuous optimisation of processes that ensure customers are supported effectively when fraud occurs, while protecting Tide from financial and regulatory risk. This role requires balancing customer outcomes, operational efficiency, scheme compliance, and loss mitigation.

You will lead multiple operational functions, including fraud investigations, dispute and chargeback handling, and frontline fraud reporting support. You will also work closely with Product, Engineering, Risk, and Data teams to improve tooling, streamline workflows, and enhance fraud response capabilities.

You will be responsible for delivering against key fraud and operational KPIs, including customer outcomes, recovery rates, SLA adherence, and scheme compliance. The role requires regular engagement with senior leadership, as well as external stakeholders such as card schemes, partners, and regulatory bodies where required.

As part of Tide’s Ongoing Monitoring team, you will aim high, embrace challenges, and act with integrity—building trust while contributing to the company’s operational and strategic direction.

What you will do:

  • Lead and scale the Reported Fraud function, covering investigations, disputes, chargebacks, and fraud reporting support.
  • Manage the end-to-end lifecycle of reported fraud cases, ensuring timely, fair, and consistent outcomes for customers.
  • Oversee issuing and acquiring chargeback processes, including dispute raising, representation, and scheme compliance.
  • Own the fraud rapid response team, ensuring customers receive immediate and effective support when reporting fraud via calls and chat.
  • Define and deliver operational KPIs across fraud reporting, investigation quality, customer experience, and recovery rates.
  • Build, mentor, and develop a multi-functional team, ensuring strong performance, clear ownership, and career progression.
  • Identify and implement process improvements to increase efficiency, reduce handling times, and improve customer outcomes.
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, and Data Science to enhance tooling, automation, and case management capabilities.
  • Ensure adherence to card scheme rules, regulatory requirements, and internal policies across all reported fraud activities.
  • Provide regular reporting and insights to senior leadership on fraud trends, operational performance, and emerging risks.
  • Represent the Reported Fraud function in cross-functional initiatives and external engagements where required.

What we’re looking for:

  • 10+ years experience in financial crime or fraud operations, with a strong focus on reported fraud, disputes, or chargebacks.
  • Proven experience managing operational teams in a fast-paced financial services or fintech environment.
  • Strong knowledge of card scheme rules (Visa, Mastercard), chargeback lifecycles, and dispute management processes.
  • Deep understanding of fraud investigation practices and customer fraud typologies (e.g. APP scams, card fraud, account takeover).
  • Experience balancing customer outcomes, fraud loss mitigation, and regulatory requirements.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with experience engaging senior leadership and cross-functional teams.
  • Ability to design, optimise, and scale operational processes using data and performance metrics.
  • Experience working with customer support or frontline operations teams, ideally in fraud or financial crime contexts.
  • Strong communication skills, able to simplify complex fraud and operational concepts for non-technical audiences.
  • Comfortable working in a fast-changing environment and adapting to evolving fraud risks and business priorities.
  • Experience with operational tooling, case management systems, or automation initiatives is advantageous.

What you’ll get in return:

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
