This is a "what’s in the box" role—no deep-dive external research or complex investigations required. You will be given the data you need to make swift, accurate decisions.

Because this is a brand-new team, top performers will have a unique opportunity to cross-train, help onboard future hires, and potentially transition into advanced investigator roles.

Responsibilities

• Reviewing system-generated cases containing various media outlets (news articles, blogs, etc.) to identify "Adverse Media" related to customers.
• Comparing article details (e.g., Name, Age, Location) against customer data provided by the system.
  • Example: If the system flags "Jane Smith from New York" and the article is about "Jane Smith from New York," it is a match.
• Determining if the article is a true match to a customer and escalating or clearing the case accordingly.
• Daily caseload: 425 Events (Articles) per day OR 100 Cases per day.
• No External Research: This is a "what’s in the box" role. Analysts should not perform external investigations or deep-dive research; they should only use the information provided in the article and the system.
