About the Role

~1 min read

Trustly offers guaranteed and non-guaranteed payments, so approval rate and loss are a live conversation with every customer. You will be the risk voice in those conversations, starting before terms are signed. You will own the risk relationship for a portfolio of customers: the reporting they see, the thresholds they ask about, the remediation when return performance drifts, and the expected loss and guarantee tier that go into their pricing. This is an individual contributor role. This is an individual contributor role. You will influence outcomes through collaboration, working with our risk, commercial and product teams and directly with customers.

OWN THE CUSTOMER RISK RELATIONSHIP

Run the risk cadence for the customers in your portfolio: regular reporting, the risk content in quarterly business reviews, and the risk pack itself.
→
Explain why approval rates and thresholds are set where they are, and deliver threshold and guarantee tier changes with the rationale behind them.
→
Advise customers on the controls and data on their side that would let Trustly approve more: account validation, checkout flow, and what they share at authorization.
→
Bring the case for a threshold or tier change back into Trustly.

SHAPE NEW DEALS AND REVIEW HOW THEY PERFORM

→
Run discovery and scoping with the customer and the deal team: volumes, consumer mix, return and chargeback history, the controls, and approval rates.

Set indicative risk appetite, expected loss rates into pricing, the guarantee tier recommendation, and any pre-authorization or data requirements.

Quantify the trade-off for the customer: approval rate, expected loss and the guarantee fee.
→
Structure risk terms on non-standard deals, including exposure caps, collateral and phased limits.
→
Design pilots and phased launches for a new customer or a new vertical: scope, limits, what is measured and the exit criteria.
→
Review the deals after launch, comparing actual loss and approval against what was priced.

INFLUENCE RISK DECISIONS INSIDE TRUSTLY

→
Carry the customer view into the risk engine and product roadmap.
→
Own risk content in requests for proposals, risk questionnaires, and customer due diligence reviews.

Enable our commercial and customer success teams on a regular cadence: what can be promised on risk, and when risk needs to be in the room.
