Our Financial Crime team protects Nationwide and its customers from all types of financial crime. Our team has an outstanding reputation, captivating subject matter and industry leading results that will see you work alongside detection systems, reacting to ever changing methods of financial crime, whilst striving to deliver exceptional customer experience.
As an Economic Crime Investigator, you’ll speak with our customers to discuss potentially fraudulent account activity. Using in-depth questioning skills, you will build a great rapport to identify if a payment is fraudulent and provide education where necessary to avoid the risk of future scams. As part of your training, you will learn about the other teams’ roles and responsibilities.
If you’re a team player, able to work in a fast-paced environment and putting customers and their money first is important to you, then this could be the role for you.
The team cover our core business hours between 8-8, working Monday – Friday and one in four of both Saturday and Sunday. Where you work a weekend, you'll get this time back elsewhere in the week. You will work contracted shifts on a rotational basis and will be given 8 weeks’ notice of your shift pattern.
At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.
For this job you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part time you'll spend 40% of your working time, based at either our Sheffield, Wakefield, Northampton, Swindon or Dunfermline office. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. You can also find out more about our approach to hybrid working here.
If we receive a high volume of relevant applications, we may close the advert earlier than the advertised date, so please apply as soon as you can.
