About the role
The Team Lead will be responsible for providing first-line supervision of Investigators to mitigate risks at Wealthsimple. The Team Lead is a financial crime expert that is focused on the client, and owns overall development and improvement of the Fraud Investigations team. The Team Lead also coordinates and assists with quality control, on-boarding, and the delivery and development of new hire training. This role leads our weekend Cash & Banking fraud team , covering both money movement and deposit fraud. Fraud doesn't take weekends off, so your regular schedule may include one or both weekend days , with the remaining days during the week so you stay connected with the wider team. We're still building out weekend coverage, so your specific days may evolve as the team and business needs grow. We'll always set schedules in advance and give notice before changing them. As the most senior person on shift, you'll make the calls, unblock the team and escalate when needed.
