Job description

THE COMPANY

Inflo is a fast-paced, agile, and rapidly scaling technology company. Founded in 2015, we have established Inflo as an innovative and impactful tech business, securing a global customer base of high-profile accounting firms and networks.

We are passionate about the accounting profession we serve and focus on driving long-term success, both in our business and those we work with. This has resulted in Inflo's SaaS platform winning multiple awards, including International Accounting Bulletin's Accountancy Software of the Year twice, the Queens Award for Innovation, and the Boomer Technology & Innovation Visionary award.

THE CULTURE

Inflo was established by former auditors motivated to transform their field and liberate auditors from monotonous, repetitive tasks. Who, after all, is eager to manually input invoice details into Excel?

Our team, a diverse group of enthusiastic individuals, operates out of three global locations: the US, the UK, and Australia. Each day, our team contributes significantly to our business and the evolution of the audit industry.

We maintain a balance that embraces the agility and collaborative spirit of a start-up, without the rigidity of traditional corporate structures, while benefiting from the stability, resources, and professionalism of an established, international company.

Our core values are essential to our operations:

• Science - We experiment and make decisions based on data over intuition

• Ownership - We empower our people and embrace accountability

• Openness - We share, challenge, and embrace feedback, learning from successes and failures

• Agility - We have a bias for action and solve problems iteratively

THE ROLE

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Junior Information Security Analyst to join our dynamic team. The successful candidate will play a crucial role in supporting our information security initiatives and ensuring the protection of our organization's data and systems.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Assist in the implementation and maintenance of security policies, procedures, and controls.
2. Assist with coordinating vulnerability assessments and penetration testing.
3. Assist in the development and execution of security awareness training programs.
4. Maintain up-to-date knowledge of security standards and regulations.
5. Collaborate with IT and other departments to ensure compliance with security standards and regulations.
6. Support the investigation, resolution, and evidencing of security incidents and breaches.
7. Support the operation of our Information Security Management System.
8. Assist with information security reviews of vendors and software for the business.

Qualifications

1. Bachelor's degree in information security, Computer Science, or a related field.
2. Basic understanding of information security principles and practices.
3. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
4. Excellent communication and teamwork abilities.
5. Ability to work independently and manage multiple tasks effectively.
6. Relevant certifications are a plus.

The Offer

As an Inflo employee, you'll enjoy the following benefits:

• 6% Employer pension contributions, provided you are a member of the scheme.
• 25 days holiday plus UK bank holidays, with an additional 0.5 days for each year of service.
• 4x Salary life assurance.
• Private medical insurance with Bupa.
• Medical cash back scheme (for optical, dental, etc.).
• Flexible working environment — work whenever and wherever suits you. At Inflo, we measure results, not hours.
• Employee Referral scheme bonus of £1,000.
• Financial support to enhance your home working environment.
• Opportunity to work from home as a fully remote role within the UK.
• Opportunity to meet quarterly in Newcastle with an evening social.
• Invitation to our Annual Global Gathering.
