Fraud Investigator

About Lendable

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money.
We're building one of the world's leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start:

• One of the UK's newest unicorns with a team of just over 600 people
• Among the
  fastest-growing tech
  companies in the UK
• Profitable since
  2017
• Backed by top investors including
  Balderton Capital
  and
  Goldman Sachs
• Loved by customers
  with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on
  Trustpilot
  )

So far, we've rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch:
loans, credit cards and car finance
. We get money into our customers' hands in minutes instead of days.

We're growing fast, and there's a lot more to do: we're going after the two biggest Western markets (UK and US) where trillions worth of financial products are held by big banks
with dated systems and painful processes.

   across a broad remit. You are trusted to make decisions that drive a material impact on the direction and success of Lendable from day 1
2. Work in small teams of exceptional people,
   who are relentlessly resourceful to solve problems and find smarter solutions than the status quo
3. Build the best technology in-house
   , using new data sources, machine learning and AI to make machines do the heavy lifting
