Position Description:   PD - Manager Fraud Analytics.docx

We’ve never been ‘just a bank’. Just like you should never be ‘just an employee’. We’re united in our belief that in banking, better can be bigger, and together we’re making it happen.

It starts here. With Bendigo Bank… and you.

We are transforming, modernising and simplifying and you can be part of that!  Our community is a place to thrive in if you enjoy working in a changing environment and devising creative solutions.  You’ll love the good you can do here: take charge of the design and implementation of clever data and algorithmic solutions to analyse, detect and prevent fraud and help to protect our bank, customers and communities from the impacts of financial crime.

As our Manager Fraud Analytics you’ll report to the Head of Data & Analytics - Financial Crime Risk and you’ll make an impact by:

• Providing leadership to a medium size team of Fraud Data Analysts, supporting the planning, analysis and execution of key tasks and projects to deliver a data led analytical capability for Financial Crime Risk
• Working with business stakeholders, Data & Analytics team members, Customer Protection Investigators and Technology team members to review and improve existing approaches to data-based fraud prevention and design/implement new ways to detect and prevent fraud. 
• Focusing on maximising benefits for Customers, making their Banking safer and continuing our commitment to being Australia’s most trusted bank.

This is a permanent full-time position which can be based out of our Melbourne, Adelaide, Bendigo, Brisbane or Sydney corporate office.  We offer flexible work options that put our people first, and a hybrid model of minimum 60% in the office. 

What you’ll bring to the role

To succeed in this role, we’d love you to have:

• Experience leading a data focused team with an enabling and supportive leadership style.
• Experience with data tools such as Oracle, SQL, Python, R and reporting dashboards.
• Strong understanding of big data techniques like machine learning, artificial intelligence, data science and modelling along with data mining and exploratory data analysis.
• Strong stakeholder engagement and management skills with the ability to effectively influence at Senior Management level.
• Working experience in financial crime risk management, with emphasis on AML/CTF, Sanctions, Payments and Fraud and experience with known/commonly used Financial Crime Risk Systems – not essential, but highly advantageous.

So, why work for us?

1. Want big impact that matters? Here, you’ll know your work directly benefits the customers and communities we all serve.
2. Want to be more than just a number? Join a team that truly values you and the diverse contribution you make, every day.
3. Want career opportunity AND flexibility? Achieve both here, where we know that balance and progression go hand in hand.

You’ll also get access to a great range of benefits, including:

• Flexibility means different things for different people. Whether it’s hybrid work, flexible hours, a compressed work week, job-sharing or something different, our flexible work options are designed to put people first
• Health and wellbeing support, including discounted gym memberships, private health insurance options, and our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for you and your immediate family members
• Opportunities to take your learning to the next level through our corporate university ‘BEN U’ or at an external provider of your choice

We believe a diverse workforce supported by an inclusive culture is central to our success and we actively encourage applications from those who bring diversity of thought to our business. We support candidate requests for adjustment to accommodate an illness, injury, or disability to equitably participate in the selection process.

Still in two minds?  Research suggests 60% of women and underrepresented groups might stop here, so even if you don’t tick every box we still want to see your application!

We’re making better, bigger. And we’ll get there with you.

Now’s the time to set your sights even higher – on the future you and the future career you deserve.
