About the role:
You'll own information security risk management, control assurance, and ISO 27001 ISMS governance across a regulated group spanning banking, consumer finance, and technology.
What you'll do:
Form an independent view of security risk and challenge whether proposed controls actually address it, working directly with the Group CISO
Assess control design and operating effectiveness across areas such as IAM, cloud, endpoint security, monitoring, vulnerability management, data protection, and secure development
Turn risk and control data into clear, decision-ready reporting for governance forums
What you'll own:
Own the security risk process end to end: assessment, treatment, acceptance, monitoring, and reporting
Maintain the risk register and challenge risk assessments and treatment plans so residual risk, ownership, and remediation status stay current
Maintain the security control framework, test controls using evidence, data, sampling, or technical validation, and drive remediation with control owners
Maintain the ISO 27001 ISMS: policies and standards, Statement of Applicability, risk records, control evidence, exceptions, and key security registers
Track control deficiencies, findings, exceptions, and remediation actions
Define KRIs and control metrics, and flag where management decisions or escalation are needed
What makes you a strong fit:
Strong practical experience in information security risk management: inherent and residual risk, treatment, acceptance, control effectiveness, risk appetite
Enough technical depth to critically assess controls across IAM, cloud, endpoint security, monitoring, vulnerability management, data protection, and secure development
Hands-on experience reviewing or testing controls, with the ability to distinguish a documented control from an effective one
Working knowledge of ISO 27001, with the ability to turn complex risk and control information into concise management reporting
Comfortable working with GRC platforms, structured risk and control registers, and evidence management
What we offer:
Ownership and flexibility
Fully remote work with core collaboration hours from 12:00 to 6:00 PM Manila time (UTC+8)
Company-provided tools and equipment
Health and time off
Medical insurance support for you and your family through co-funding or reimbursement, depending on your location and subject to policy limits
