You will act as a shield between Dojo and any fraud and AML risks by working on alerts generated in our Risk Monitoring queue, using data to spot emerging threats, and utilizing sophisticated monitoring and advanced investigation techniques. Working in a great team of fast and thorough decision-makers, you'll proactively engage with internal stakeholders to best manage and mitigate our risk while enabling Dojo's continued growth and expansion.

What You Will Do...

  • Review and investigate suspicious activity alerts.
  • Manage your own case load, taking ownership from start to finish.
  • Communicate directly with merchants as part of your investigations to quickly understand and mitigate any risk.
  • Educate and support our merchants to help protect them from fraud risk.
  • Identify emerging trends and work with the team to innovate our risk-monitoring processes.
  • Act as an internal referral point for matters relating to fraud and general risk.
  • Serve as the SME for your area and support the wider team.

What You Will Bring...

  • Previous experience in a counter-fraud or financial crime role.
  • Outstanding communication skills, with the ability to build instant customer rapport.
  • A willingness to embrace change and help drive the team forward.
  • Strong attention to detail.
  • Proactivity with the ability to anticipate and resolve issues.
  • The ability to manage and prioritize your own caseload.
  • A collaborative attitude, happy to support and develop those around you.
  • Experience with payments and acquiring in the Spanish market.
  • Proficiency in English & Spanish, both written and spoken.

Dojo from the get-go

First launch was back in 2009. So with over 15 years in the payments industry, we’ve got a story to tell. 

Dojo is built to soothe customer and consumer pain points across the world for over 140,000 customers. 

And today, there’s over 1,200 of us in multiple locations across the UK, Ireland, Spain, and Italy.

Our mission is to empower businesses to thrive in the experience economy by creating the tools and tech that turns transactions into meaningful relationships. 

We do that through sophisticated EPOS payments integrations, fast transactions, hospitality bookings, and a strong consumer restaurant app.


Question: what’s curious, relentless, and customer obsessed?

If you’re keen to know the answer, you’re a third of the way to meeting our Dojo values.

If the following speak to you, let’s talk:

  • You’re curious. You have a real desire to learn and create.
  • You’re relentless. You keep going even when it’s easier not to. 
  • You’re customer-obsessed. You know how important customers are to what you do. 


Dojo home and away

We love collaboration. We have offices across Europe – that takes some dynamism.

Long-distance calls are a must, but we’ve always valued in-person work when it’s possible, especially meetings. We aim for asynchronous communication when we can though.

Don’t like rules? Nor do we. We avoid top-down policies – it’s all about teams having the power to fuel their success. 

At Dojo, you’re trusted to judge what you see and make the call in the best interest of our customers.
