Cifas stands as a beacon in the fight against fraud, leveraging over 30 years of expertise to empower its community with the UK's largest databases of fraud risk data and intelligence. This commitment to collaboration and data sharing saves Cifas members over £1.8 billion annually, protecting countless individuals from fraud.

Beyond its mission, Cifas places significant emphasis on employee wellbeing, with a comprehensive strategy that includes a weekly wellbeing hour and a team of Wellbeing Cultural Champions. These champions lead initiatives such as yoga sessions, health checks, and webinars to promote mental and physical health. The Self-Help Directory and trained mental health first aiders provide additional layers of support.

Fostering connection in a predominantly remote environment, Cifas hosts One Team Days and Collaboration Days to bring employees together for team-building and cross-departmental collaboration. These initiatives ensure that every team member feels connected and engaged.

Personal and professional development is at the heart of Cifas, reflected in Personal Development Plans and the Cifas-accredited academy offering over 18,000 courses. The Ignite Mentoring and Coaching Programme further supports growth, alongside opportunities for formal qualifications.

Cifas also embraces social responsibility through its Culture Social Responsibility champion group, supporting charities like RSPCA, Barnardo's, and Mind. Partnering with Be OnHand, Cifas encourages employees to engage in volunteering activities, fostering a sense of community and giving back beyond its core mission of fraud prevention. Through these initiatives, Cifas creates an environment where employees are empowered, connected, and inspired to thrive.
