Job Zusammenfassung

In dieser Rolle entwickelst du die Sicherheitsstrategien im GRC-Bereich einer regulierten Fintech-Umgebung, führst komplexe, bereichsübergreifende Initiativen durch und berätst die Geschäftsführung zu Risikomanagement und Compliance.

Deine Rolle im Team

  • As an Information Security Expert, you are a senior individual contributor who sets direction and solves the hardest GRC problems in a regulated fintech environment.
  • You shape our security governance strategy, ensure our control framework remains effective as the business scales, and act as a key advisor to security leadership and senior business stakeholders on risk and compliance decisions.
  • You'll lead complex, high-impact initiatives (multi-entity, multi-region, regulator/customer-facing), influence across the organisation, and raise the bar for how we design, test, and evidence security controls.
  • Define multi-year GRC roadmap aligned to business strategy, risk appetite, and regulatory expectations (e.g., DORA readiness, audit strategy, control maturity targets).
  • Drive control framework evolution: rationalize controls, reduce duplication, and ensure proportionality based on criticality, data sensitivity, and business impact.
  • Establish 'north star' principles for governance (e.g., minimum control baselines, exception governance, evidence-by-design).
  • Advise leadership on material risk decisions: risk acceptance, remediation prioritisation, control investments, and scope decisions.
  • Produce executive-grade outputs: risk narratives, board/committee materials, and regulator/customer responses with defensible rationale.
  • Facilitate senior stakeholder alignment when priorities conflict (delivery speed vs control rigor; cost vs assurance depth).
  • Own strategy and approach for major audits/assurance activities (ISO 27001, SOC 2, regulatory examinations, key client due diligence), including scope, positioning, and negotiation.
  • Lead responses to complex audit/regulatory issues: root-cause analysis, corrective action programs, and sustained effectiveness verification.
  • You may be the SME for one or more of: ISMS/ISO 27001 at scale (multi-entity scope, continuous compliance); DORA / operational resilience governance (control mapping, ICT risk integration, testing oversight); Third-party risk for critical ICT providers (oversight model, ongoing monitoring, exit/continuity governance); Security control assurance (testing program design, evidence standards, control health metrics).
  • Set standards and reusable artifacts: control narratives, evidence templates, testing methodologies, and playbooks.
  • Mentor specialists and associates; raise organisation-wide capability through coaching and review.
  • Partner with Security Engineering/IT/Compliance to embed controls into workflows (policy-to-automation where possible).

  • Strong technology risk understanding across cloud, IAM, SDLC governance, incident management, vulnerability management, logging/monitoring, crypto/fintech operational processes (as relevant).
  • You are able to influence across the organisation and resolve conflicts with a risk-based, outcome-oriented approach.
