Full Job Description

Crown Agents Bank is a vastly growing and regulated UK bank that connects emerging and frontier markets to the rest of the world, using FX and payments technology. We are transforming the way payments and FX move through emerging markets, reducing friction so that more money gets to those who need it. Emerging markets payments are usually challenging, expensive, unreliable and opaque. Our solutions help fix these pain points. Ultimately, we connect traditionally hard-to-reach regions to global financial infrastructure, giving access to the best prices and the fastest, most reliable settlement. FX and cross-border payments are often complex and expensive, especially when operating in emerging markets. Crown Agents Bank (CAB) wraps its deep and trusted relationships and strength of network around innovative digital capabilities, and cross-border transaction banking solutions to enable fintech, corporates, governments, development organisations and banks to move money to, from, and across often hard-to-reach markets. Role Purpose This is a specialist dual-focus role at the intersection of secure delivery and security assurance. You will own two primary programmes of work for Crown Agents Bank: • Security in Change: Acting as the security voice in project delivery — conducting risk assessments, reviewing architecture, maintaining the Secure SDLC framework, and providing formal security sign-off on material changes. • Security Assurance: Running the Bank’s security testing and vulnerability management programme — commissioning and managing penetration tests, owning vulnerability reporting and trend analysis, managing attack surface visibility, and working collaboratively across the business to drive remediation. You will be technically credible enough to challenge architects and developers, and clear and persuasive enough to land risk decisions with senior stakeholders. As part of a small, high-trust CISO team, you will also flex across the wider service catalogue beyond
