What are the responsibilities and job description for the Fraud Risk Analyst position at Talent Forward?
Summary
Why should you join the Carolinas Credit Union League team? First, it’s important to understand who we serve: credit unions, which stand apart as cooperative providers of financial services, owned and governed by their members (the consumers they serve), and guided by cooperative principles and the philosophy of “People Helping People.” For nearly a century, credit unions have sought to make financial well-being possible for all. We share that sentiment, and our mission is to be a catalyst for credit union success in North and South Carolina. We do so through five focus areas of service: Advocacy, Risk Management, Professional Development, Credit Union Resources, and Community.

For each of them and ourselves, we strive for excellence and aim to exceed expectations as part of our core values. As a smaller, not-for-profit association within the cooperative industry, we know that we are stronger together when we listen and lead and work as a team, valuing the diverse cultures, voices and backgrounds among our staff and credit union professionals we serve. We also have a distinct family of partners and affiliates (including our foundation) that further allows us to think big and deliver a variety of development and business solutions to our member credit unions.
