About the Role
The Fraud & Compliance Operations Manager leads a team in day-to-day fraud monitoring, investigation, and compliance enforcement across client corporate spend programs - including Corporate Credit Card, Business Travel Accounts (BTAs), and P-Card - as well as third-party/vendor transactions. Reporting into the Compliance function, this role partners closely with the Expense Audit Team, Data Analytics, HR, Finance, and Legal to identify risk, conduct investigations, and drive accountability.

Core Responsibilities
Expense Account Monitoring & Fraud Analytics

* Conduct audits of expense reports, card transactions, and supplier payments to identify anomalies, policy violations, and potential fraud.
* Lead fraud investigations end-to-end - validating transaction authenticity, documenting findings, and coordinating escalations with HR, Legal, and external partners.
* Maintain case documentation, audit trails, and reporting dashboards in compliance with internal standards.

Procure-to-Pay Compliance Monitoring
* Monitor compliance with corporate expense and reimbursement policies across the full procure-to-pay cycle; track exceptions, identify repeat violators, and drive timely resolution.
* Oversee purchase order (PO) governance - identify instances where requestors fail to properly validate and receive POs, track patterns, escalate repeat violations, and partner with relevant stakeholders to drive corrective action.
* Build and operate a third-party spend monitoring function to identify potential supplier fraud.
* Reporting, Insights & Stakeholder Collaboration
* Produce regular reporting on fraud findings, compliance trends, and exception patterns; deliver actionable insights to management to support risk-informed decision-making.
* Partner with Communications to develop and distribute employee-facing messaging in response to findings - including policy reminders, awareness notices, and escalation communications.
* Coordinate with Security on findings that warrant investigation escalation or access-related remediation; engage Policy teams to recommend and implement control enhancements based on identified gaps.
