Merchant Engagement & Dispute Rate Management: Proactively communicate with merchants to ensure timely action on claims and provide guidance as needed. Engage with merchants experiencing high dispute rates to request action plans for improvement.
Negative Balance Collection: Support the collection of merchant negative balances once the process and ownership model are finalized. This responsibility is currently being scoped.
Channel Partner Workflow Support: Handle CP-flagged disputes according to defined manual workflows and coordinate with Commercial Key Account Managers (KAMs) on partner-specific escalations.
Regulator Escalation Coordination (Designated Investigators Only): For designated specialists, handle SAMA and CBUAE escalated cases in coordination with the Government Escalation team and legal. Draft responses to regulator queries within the SAMA 5-business-day escalation SLA and maintain a regulator escalation log, reporting monthly to the team leader.
Reporting: Provide daily case throughput reports and weekly quality reviews on adjudication decisions. Identify and surface operational patterns and improvement opportunities to the Team Leader.

2-5 years of experience in a relevant operational role.
Demonstrated ability to manage case-level dispute resolution.
Experience with exception review, evidence adjudication, and recovery coordination.
Strong communication skills for merchant engagement.
