Key Responsibilities

The Retail and Fraud Strategy Lead will be responsible for the development and execution of strategies related to ticket fulfillment, channel optimization, and fraud prevention within Transport for Wales (TfW), ensuring alignment with the organization's transition to a fully multimodal entity.

  • Enhance and refine the TfW ticket fulfillment, channel optimization, and fraud prevention strategies in collaboration with the Head of Retail and Head of Commercial Strategy, utilizing change plans to achieve revenue and cost objectives while elevating customer satisfaction in ticket purchasing.
  • Support the realization of TfW's multimodal goals by formulating strategies for ticket fulfillment, channel optimization, and fraud reduction that advocate for a cohesive ticketing approach and minimize fraud.
  • Stay informed about retail and ticketing developments across the rail and public transport sectors, including updates on retail channels, fulfillment techniques, and fraud prevention measures, by participating in industry meetings with the Rail Delivery Group (RDG) and Great British Railways Transition Team (GBRTT). Ensure that the implications for TfW operations are comprehended, risks are mitigated, and opportunities are identified.
  • Identify modernization opportunities for existing systems and processes by collaborating closely with the Head of Retail, Retail Systems Manager, and Retail Projects Manager to drive revenue growth and/or reduce operational costs.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Proven experience in strategically planning, executing, and managing change initiatives related to ticketing and/or fraud management that have led to enhancements in business processes and/or financial outcomes.
  • Proficiency in developing processes, reporting, and presenting ticketing and/or fraud management metrics to senior leadership.
  • Experience in collaborating with both internal and external stakeholders to drive change.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead a multidisciplinary team.
