Economic Crime Investigator

As an Economic Crime Investigator, you'll join our Legal Instruments Team as a trusted specialist in financial crime and data disclosure, playing a vital role in protecting Nationwide and its members. You'll be responsible for the accurate, lawful and timely handling of court orders, legal instruments and requests from law enforcement agencies. Your work will support compliance with production and disclosure orders while safeguarding sensitive customer information and ensuring we meet our obligations under financial crime legislation. This is a fast paced environment where accuracy, sound judgement, and a calm, methodical approach are essential.

The role may also require you to attend court, so having direct experience in this environment, and the resilience to manage the pressures that come with it is essential.

If you have a strong background in financial crime operations or investigations and want to make a meaningful impact at the intersection of law, data and economic crime, we'd be delighted to hear from you.

For this job, you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part-time, you'll spend 40% of your working time, based at either our Northampton or Swindon office. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works.

Nationwide is committed to the redeployment of our employees impacted by change, as such applications for redeployment candidates will be prioritised in this recruitment process.

If you're a colleague on long term absence (for example, on parental leave) or a temporary worker, please use your personal email address to submit an application.

More rewarding. From 1 July 2026, the minimum salary for this role will be £27,500.
