What you’ll do
With us, you can shape how Ireland's leading telecom partner protects its customers, business, and reputation from fraud.
You will set the strategic direction for fraud management across the organisation, defining the approach to policies, tools and methodologies in line with regulatory requirements and industry practice. You’ll drive continuous improvement in detection and prevention capabilities, reducing financial exposure while delivering measurable value to the business.

Working closely with Technology, Finance and Commercial teams, you’ll embed fraud controls into product and proposition design from the outset. You’ll lead a transformation roadmap that brings together stakeholders to deliver change at pace, using data, analytics, automation and emerging technologies to stay ahead of evolving threats. Alongside this, you’ll build and develop a high-performing fraud function, ensuring the team, tools and operating model continue to evolve with the business.
