# Fraud Data Analyst (Banking) - 6-Month Contract

> Capitex · London, United Kingdom (Hybrid) · Contract · Posted 2026-08-19

**Workplace:** hybrid

## Description

**About the engagement**

Capitex is a specialist Financial Crime Compliance talent provider. We are hiring a Fraud Data Analyst for a 6-month contract supporting the 24/7 fraud operation of a leading international banking client.

The shape of the engagement: the first phase is delivered fully remote from the UK. From Month 3, the engagement moves onsite with the client overseas, with relocation fully supported - flight, visa sponsorship and a housing allowance on top of your fee. Location specifics are shared at screening stage. Onsite participation from Month 3 is a firm requirement of the role, not a preference - please only apply if a supported working stint abroad genuinely works for you.

**The role**

You will be the analytical engine of the fraud operations team - working alongside L1 and L2 fraud analysts and a senior fraud investigator, and acting as the bridge between what the operation sees and what the detection estate does.

-   Analyse fraud alert and case data to identify trends, emerging typologies, detection gaps and false-positive drivers
-   Support rule and threshold tuning on the client's fraud monitoring platform - build the evidence base, model the impact, document proposed changes
-   Design and produce operational MI: alert volumes, disposition outcomes, SLA performance, fraud losses and prevented losses
-   Build and maintain dashboards and recurring reporting for fraud leadership
-   Support post-incident and thematic reviews with data deep-dives
-   Contribute to knowledge transfer and coaching of the client's analyst team

## Requirements

**What we are looking for**

-   3+ years in data analytics within fraud, financial crime or banking operations
-   Strong SQL - essential and tested at screening
-   Python or R - a strong plus
-   BI and visualisation tools (Power BI, Tableau or equivalent) - dashboards you have built, not viewed
-   Familiarity with fraud detection platforms and alert data structures (FICO Falcon, NICE Actimize, SAS or equivalent environments) - enough to interrogate their output and support tuning
-   Clear English and the ability to present analysis to senior stakeholders
-   A passport with 12+ months' validity remaining
-   Immediate or short-notice availability strongly preferred

**Engagement details**

-   6-month consultancy agreement with Capitex, with extension possible on client renewal
-   Competitive all-inclusive monthly consultancy fee, with housing allowance and flight covered for the onsite phase
-   Visa and work authorisation for the onsite phase arranged and sponsored
-   Laptop provided
