**Be Part of the Story**

OnCommerce is constantly evolving. Everyone here plays a hands-on role in shaping what comes next, building brands that make an impact across global markets. There’s no red tape or rigid corporate structure; just smart people taking ownership and figuring things out as we build something big together. The pace is fast, priorities shift, things aren’t always perfectly set up, and you’ll often need to get stuck in and solve problems. But if you thrive in that kind of environment, you’ll have real influence, real ownership, and the chance to grow with a rapidly scaling business.

**Role Overview**

The Risk Manager will act as the primary Europe based decision-maker for marketplace risk and payments, owning the implementation of global risk and fraud processes across the European region.

-   Localise group-level fraud and risk policies into clear, actionable procedures for in scope European operations.

-   Provide final risk sign-off for seller onboarding, within the European region, where payments, fraud, or scheme exposure is present.
-   Ensure ongoing monitoring of seller behaviour, performance indicators, and emerging risks for transactions within the European region.

**Disputes, Chargebacks & Scheme Compliance**

-   Provide direction to the Head of Customer Response on any additional requirements or threshold changes required to ensure compliance with all card scheme requirements across the European region.
-   Act as the primary point of contact for Visa, Mastercard, and payment partners on dispute, fraud monitoring, and scheme compliance matters, across the European region.
-   Monitor chargeback ratios, early warning indicators, and scheme programmes applicable to merchants for all regions.

**Payments & Acquirer Relationship Ownership**

-   Own the operational relationship with payment service providers across the European region (including Adyen), acting as the authorised local representative for OnBuy (EU) Limited.
-   Hold delegated authority to approve payment risk settings, fraud controls, reserve discussions, and onboarding requirements for merchant accounts within the European region.
-   Serve as the authorised signatory (or designated risk owner) for payment, fraud, and scheme-related matters, where required across the European region.

**Risk Assessment & Reporting**

-   Monitor fraud KPIs, loss trends, dispute metrics, and control performance across all regions; provide structured reporting to the Head of Risk.
-   Identify emerging fraud and payments risks across all regions, proposing timely, locally owned interventions, as well as ensuring these are also reflected in the Group level reporting.
-   Maintain evidence demonstrating that marketplace risk, payments oversight, and dispute control are directed and managed from Ireland for the territories in scope
