Do you have strong analytical skills? If you do, then Social Security Scotland are looking a for B2 Risk Analysis and Control Team Manager to join our Fraud and Error Resolution Unit.

While our strategy is to design out opportunities for fraud and error through preventative measures where possible, there remains the possibility that fraud will occur.

You will also support other areas with implementation. Alongside this you will play a key role in maintaining the fraud and error risk register which provides a high-level overview of emerging threats which could hamper our ability to deliver benefits safely and securely.
