  • Manage day-to-day payment operations across multiple payment channels, including NPP, NDE, direct debit, BSB/account transfers, international payments, refunds, and manual payments.
  • Support daily funding and top-up activities for Shift operational accounts, monitoring balances and escalating where funds may be insufficient to support customer payments and settlement requirements.
  • Investigate and resolve inbound and outbound payment queries and exceptions, including rejected, reversed, dishonoured, delayed, duplicated, or incorrectly allocated payments.
  • Complete payment reconciliations, refunds, manual payment sheets, and payment adjustments, investigating and resolving discrepancies across internal systems, bank accounts, and payment providers.
  • Manage payment-related inbox queries and communicate directly with customers, providing clear updates and supporting timely resolution of payment issues.
  • Liaise with external partners (Cuscal, Cache, and ThreatMetrix) to investigate payment failures, risk alerts, system issues, and other underlying payment incidents.
  • Support payment incident management by identifying issues, assessing customer impact, escalating appropriately, and assisting with remediation and resolution.
  • Review and process escalated onshore invoices requiring payment approval, ensuring appropriate validation, authorisation, and supporting documentation are completed prior to payment.
  • Maintain accurate and audit-ready payment records; ensure activities are completed in accordance with internal controls, delegated authorities, AML/CTF requirements, payment scheme obligations, and agreed SLAs.


What you’ll bring:


  • Previous experience in payments operations, banking operations, financial services, or a similar transaction-processing environment.
  • Experience investigating and resolving payment queries, exceptions, reconciliation discrepancies, and failed or delayed transactions.
  • Experience working across payment channels such as NPP, direct debit/NDE, account transfers, international payments, refunds, or manual payments.
