Team Summary

Visa Managed Services, part of Risk & Security Solutions, is an important part of Visa’s Value-Added Services business and partners with acquirers, issuers, merchants, and fintech clients to manage risk, improve authorization performance, and reduce fraud. As a strategic extension of clients’ risk teams, we combine consulting expertise, data-driven analysis, and Visa’s risk solutions to deliver measurable business outcomes.

We are a collaborative and supportive team passionate about helping clients adapt to an evolving risk landscape and achieve sustainable growth.

What a Visa Managed Service Consultant does at Visa:

Key Accountabilities and Objectives:

• The Consultant manages a portfolio of client engagements across acceptance and issuing use cases, applying practical risk strategies to reduce fraud, improve authorization performance, and support business growth.
• Working across multiple engagements, the Consultant analyzes transaction and performance data, identifies risk trends and optimization opportunities, and translates insights into actionable recommendations. The role partners closely with client teams and internal stakeholders to drive ongoing solution optimization and managed service delivery.

Key Responsibilities:

• Manage a portfolio of client engagements across acceptance and issuing use cases, serving as a trusted advisor on payment risk strategy, fraud mitigation, and authorization optimization.
• Conduct in-depth analysis of transaction data, fraud patterns, and authorization performance using SQL, Python, and Visa's proprietary analytics platforms to identify risks, trends, and actionable optimization opportunities.
• Configure, monitor, and optimize Visa risk solutions — including CyberSource Decision Manager, Visa Risk Manager (VRM), and Visa Consumer Authentication Service (VCAS) — aligned with each client's business objectives and risk appetite.
• Develop and deliver data-driven recommendations through client-facing presentations, performance reports, and strategy reviews, translating complex analytical findings into clear, actionable insights.
• Drive continuous improvement across managed service engagements by tracking KPIs (e.g., fraud rates, false positive rates, approval rates), conducting periodic performance reviews, and proactively identifying enhancement opportunities.
• Partner with product, analytics, and cross-functional teams to ensure seamless client delivery, escalate emerging risks, and contribute to the evolution of Visa's managed service capabilities — including the exploration of Generative AI-enabled workflows for analysis and reporting.

• Product Enablement & Revenue Growth — You will help translate frontline service insights and client feedback into scalable product improvements, enabling Visa's risk solutions to serve a broader client base more effectively and contributing to the growth of product adoption and revenue.
• GenAI-Driven Workflow Transformation — You will contribute to initiatives that reimagine how we work by applying Generative AI to our existing analytical and operational workflows — automating routine tasks, accelerating insights generation, and freeing capacity for deeper, more complex problem-solving.
