Fraud Officer - 1 day per week in Manchester - 9 month FTC


Our mission is to enable, and inspire, public sector organisations to move towards net zero. We deliver government funding schemes to support councils, schools, housing associations, hospitals and universities boost their energy efficiency, reduce their impact on the environment, save money and to remove more households from fuel poverty.


We work with the UK government and the devolved administrations in Scotland and Wales. As well as managing the funding schemes, we provide professional advice, expertise and support to grant recipients throughout all stages of their projects. We also offer insight, intelligence and influence by sharing knowledge and lessons learned from project delivery to help improve future schemes and policy development. We were created in 2004 and have been growing ever since. We now employ 200 people. We are committed and passionate about supporting governments to reach their ambitious net zero targets. We are proud and excited to be on the journey with them. We are wholly owned by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.



We seek an experienced Fraud Officer to manage fraud prevention for Salix's Public Sector and Housing schemes. This crucial role involves embedding anti-fraud controls in our operations, policies, and monitoring. Part of the new Fraud Team, you'll collaborate with audit and compliance teams to ensure organization-wide assurance. Responsibilities include assisting the Fraud Manager with risk assessments, fraud management plans, awareness initiatives, and investigations. Building relationships with project and corporate functions is key. Significant experience in fraud risk assessment, anti-fraud controls, and investigations is required. Experience in compliance or risk management is a plus.

  • To input on fraud policy, fraud investigations and provide advice and assurance on all fraud related matters (including also theft, bribery, corruption and whistleblowing).
  • To work with the Fraud Manager and others to assess the fraud capability in the organisation at a strategic and operational level and to implement actions to address this, including fraud awareness training, communications, and other targeted support.


Key Responsibilities;


  • Assist the Fraud Manager to develop, implement and maintain robust and effective policies, procedures and fraud risk management systems to help Salix and stakeholders identify, manage, monitor and control fraud risk and prevent, deter and detect fraud. This will cover Corporate, Schemes, delivery partner and supply chain fraud risks.
  • To liaise with key stakeholders within Salix, DESNZ, the Delivery Partner and others to ensure there is an open and transparent relationship that will ultimately help proactively mitigate fraud risks.
  • To assist the Fraud Manager in reviewing fraud risk assessments and checks of Salix and the Delivery Partners' processes and systems, ensuring that the framework is being adhered to.
  • Extract and analyse data, investigate data integrity, generate metrics and perform data analysis. Produce reports on performance, investigations, plans and other reports as required.
  • Ensure continuous learning and improvement takes place in Salix about fraud risks and anti-fraud controls to help keep processes and systems effective and protect the organisation and grant schemes from fraud, misappropriation, and error.
  • Assist the Fraud Manger in delivering fraud awareness training and develop and disseminate fraud-related communications and targeted support.
  • Advise on or undertake fraud investigations where relevant and appropriate, including identifying improvements to controls and processes to mitigate fraud.
  • Undertake other duties as relevant, which may include support on wider risk management, quality assurance, compliance or other assurance functions.
