CMC Markets is seeking an experienced Information Security Manager to play a pivotal role in shaping and strengthening our global security governance and risk framework.
Operating across multiple regulatory jurisdictions, CMC develops and delivers its own retail and B2B trading and investment platforms. This role sits at the heart of our Group-wide security strategy — ensuring robust governance, effective risk management, and regulatory alignment across the business.
This is a senior, governance-focused position. It is not a hands-on cyber operations role, but one that requires strategic oversight, regulatory confidence, and the ability to influence across distributed international teams.
You’ll take ownership of security governance within your remit, working closely with Technology, Risk, Compliance and the wider Group Security function to deliver pragmatic, right-sized solutions that enable the business while protecting it.
Embed and maintain the Group Information Security framework across all regions
Ensure alignment with global regulatory regimes (FCA, ESMA, ASIC, MAS and others) and recognised standards such as ISO 27001
Lead and support security risk assessments across business units, platforms and third parties
Maintain and enhance the Information Security Management System (ISMS)
Track, report and drive remediation of key security risks and metrics at senior stakeholder level
Act as a primary security contact for audits, supervisory reviews and regulatory engagement
Ensure policies, standards and controls meet global regulatory expectations
Support regulatory submissions, security attestations and client due diligence
Interpret new regulatory developments and work cross-functionally to embed practical solutions
Oversee security risk assessments of technology vendors and service providers
Support supplier due diligence and ongoing risk monitoring
Ensure appropriate controls are embedded across outsourced and offshore operations
Partner with security and technology stakeholders across Europe and APAC
Promote a consistent Group security posture while accommodating local regulatory requirements
Contribute to global security initiatives and transformation programmes
Provide security leadership to business projects, balancing risk management with commercial priorities
Act as a recognised security authority within relevant jurisdictions (e.g. IAM, data protection oversight)
Degree-qualified (or equivalent) in Business, Technology, Information Security or a related discipline
7+ years’ experience in Information Security, including 3+ years in a senior advisory or managerial capacity
Strong grounding in governance, risk and regulatory security requirements within financial services
Experience developing policies, standards and security documentation
Proven experience in third-party risk assessment and supplier security oversight
Confident stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to influence across functions and regions
