<li>Provide quality feedback and coaching input to the L1 team, and act as a referral point during your shift.</li>

<li>4+ years in fraud operations within banking or payments, with at least 2 years at L2/escalation/investigation level.</li>

<li>Strong working knowledge of digital banking fraud typologies and controls in a real-time environment.</li>
<li>Sound, defensible decision-making under SLA pressure, and clear written case narration in English.</li>
<li>Confirmed availability for an August 2026 start and genuine willingness to be onsite in Kuwait City from month 3 to month 6.</li>
<li>GCC banking experience and Arabic language skills are a plus, not a requirement.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Engagement details</h4>
<ul>
<li>6-month consultancy agreement with Capitex, with extension possible on client renewal.</li>
<li>Competitive all-inclusive monthly consultancy fee, with an additional housing allowance during the onsite phase.</li>
