As a Process Manager at Zopa Bank, you will play a crucial role in understanding, managing and improving the processes that relate to Fraud and Financial Crime. Reporting directly to the Head of Fraud and FinCrime Operations, you will be responsible for creating and maintaining process artifacts including knowledge pages for agents to use, training subject matter content, customer communication templates, standard operating procedures, process maps and the like.  You will be responsible for understanding how these processes are performing day to day working the risk and data teams to ensure that you have regular and meaningful insight on process performance, risks and weak areas where we need to improve our controls.
