More about our mission and what we offer.

We are seeking a highly skilled Threat Intelligence Investigator to join our Threat Intelligence Unit (TIU). In this role, you will analyse complex data signals, perform deep-dive investigations into sophisticated threat actor activity, and spearhead decisive initiatives to dismantle criminal networks.

Your Mission: Serving as the primary investigative edge of the TIU, you will utilise the Intelligence Collection Framework (ICF) to identify threat actor activity, pivot across data points to expose illicit networks, and execute disruptive actions. Furthermore, you will collaborate with key external partners, including law enforcement agencies, to neutralise high-harm economic crime operations.

Key Responsibilities

• Investigative Execution: Leverage signals from the ICF to identify threat actor behavior, conduct rigorous investigations, and execute justifiable, direct actions against compromised or malicious accounts.

• Network Analysis: Pivot on investigative discoveries and perform comprehensive analysis to map and expose broader networks of criminal activity.

• Strategic Mitigation: Extract insights from investigations to identify emerging trends, formulating best-practice recommendations for proactive threat mitigation.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Fraud and AML teams to deliver detailed, intelligence-enriched reports on high-harm suspicious activity, providing clear recommendations and co-leading complex, long-term investigations.

• External Partnership & Evidential Tracking: Collaborate with industry peers and law enforcement authorities to combat economic crime. Your findings will quantify the scale of threat actor impact and form the basis for formal evidential requests.

• Framework Optimisation: Apply investigative discoveries to refine the ICF and inform the strategic decision-making of the TIU analytical function.

Qualifications & Experience

• Proven Expertise: Significant experience managing and leading complex investigations within counter-fraud or financial crime environments.

• Strategic Mindset: A sophisticated, counter-adversarial approach to threat detection and problem-solving.

• Intelligence Lifecycle Proficiency: A thorough understanding of the intelligence lifecycle, with a demonstrated ability to translate data into actionable outcomes.

• Digital Forensics: Technical experience in digital forensic investigations, including the effective utilization of device indicators and the analysis of network signals (e.g., IP infrastructure).

• Stakeholder Management: Proven track record of conducting collaborative investigations alongside diverse internal and external stakeholders.

• Desirable Credentials: Professional certifications in fraud or financial crime investigation (such as ICA, ACFE, or ACAMS) and prior experience in cyber kill-chain mapping are highly advantageous.
