Senior Information Security Engineer - £75,000 per annum - Fully Remote - FinTech

My client is building a lean, automation-focused team and is looking for a Compliance and Information Security Engineer to lead data protection, regulatory compliance, and cybersecurity. This strategic, hands-on role involves acting as DPO and embedding scalable, efficient controls across the business. The ideal candidate is collaborative and pragmatic, capable of balancing risk and agility in a fast-paced startup environment.

The role is available immediately and offers a fully remote working arrangement with occasional team meet-ups in London.

• Lead and maintain compliance frameworks (UK GDPR, DPA 2018, ISO27001, FCA AISP), ensuring policies, procedures, and controls are current across data protection, information security, and regulatory risk.
• Act as Data Protection Officer (DPO), managing SARs, breaches, ROPAs, and DPIAs, while delivering scalable training and awareness programs across the company.
• Design and implement secure, low-overhead technical and organisational controls, oversee incident response, vendor security, and external certifications.
• Drive compliance automation initiatives to reduce manual processes and support scalable growth, including internal audits and monitoring to maintain high standards.
• Collaborate across teams to embed proportionate, automation-friendly compliance and security practices, and communicate risks effectively to leadership.
• Proven experience in compliance and information security, with strong regulatory knowledge (UK GDPR, ISO27001), excellent communication skills, and relevant certifications (e.g., CIPP/E, CISSP).
