About The Role

Global Investigations within Global Security is responsible for conducting and coordinating investigations that may impact the firm’s people, assets, facilities, operations, and reputation. The function partners closely with stakeholders across the firm to support consistent, defensible investigative practices and strong governance and oversight. The Global Investigations Operations organization is a newly combined function bringing together the existing Fraud Alert Triage team and Investigative Support team to create a streamlined, high-performing operational backbone for Global Investigation.

As the Head of Global Investigations Operations, on the Global Security team, you will lead the unified operations team and be accountable for end-to-end operational effectiveness across intake, triage, case administration, investigator enablement, and operational controls. A core objective of this role is to manage and lead the transformation of the fraud alert intake process, partnering with SAR filing units across the firm to improve workflow efficiency, quality, governance, and handoffs—ensuring timely, consistent, and well-controlled intake and disposition processes. This transformation will also be designed to enable responsible AI integration and automation across the investigations operations model, improving scalability, reducing manual effort, enhancing consistency, and strengthening oversight through well-governed digital workflows and analytics.
