About the Role & Team
Our Risk & Trading team at theScore is constantly growing and with growth comes an increased need for insight through Data. We are always on the lookout for the best talent to join us on our mission of becoming one of the best and biggest operators in the world.
The Fraud and Betting Investigations Player Analyst is the "first line of defense" responsible for performing deep dive analysis into problematic cases of betting fraud within the sportsbook. Your main objective is to help identify optimal wagering limits for patrons based on their behaviour. It is your responsibility to track and provide thorough reports detailing patrons not acting in good faith. Examples of this include linking accounts via betting activity and utilizing geolocation to pinpoint users in the same location sharing identities and accounts as well as at live sporting venues "fast-feeding" or placing wagers ahead of data feeds. This role requires identifying and communicating this data to both the Risk & Trade and Fraud departments and recommending further actions to be taken.
