Security GRC Analyst

Lendable is on a mission to build the world's best technology to help people get credit and save money. We are building one of the world's leading fintech companies and are off to a strong start: a UK unicorn with a team of just over 700 people, one of the fastest-growing tech companies in the UK, profitable since 2017, backed by top investors including Balderton Capital and Goldman Sachs, and loved by customers with the best reviews in the market (4.9 across 10,000s of reviews on Trustpilot). We have rebuilt the Big Three consumer finance products from scratch: loans, credit cards and car finance, getting money into our customers' hands in minutes instead of days.

We are looking for a proactive Security GRC Analyst to join our Information Security team. You will play a pivotal role in scaling our security posture in a fast paced, AI driven, cloud native environment and shape our security culture and operational resilience.

• Framework & Regulatory Alignment: Help maintain, improve, and scale our security compliance programmes, ensuring ongoing alignment with standards such as SOC2, ISO27001, PCI DSS, UKGDPR and regulator expectations.
• Risk & Mitigation: Collaborate on identifying security risks across the business-including emerging risks from AI driven and agentic threats-and support the team in driving practical, risk first mitigation strategies.
• Compliance Automation: Utilize our security compliance platform (e.g., Vanta/Drata) to orchestrate automated evidence collection, reducing manual overhead and moving the company toward continuous audit readiness.
• Third Party Risk Management (TPRM): Conduct vendor and third party security risk assessments to evaluate the security posture of partners and critical outsourced service providers.
• Translating Risk & Governance: Work with the team to bridge the gap between engineering and business governance by turning technical security metrics into clear, risk based narratives for internal stakeholders and external auditors.
• Security Culture & Awareness: Support the delivery and promotion of security awareness initiatives to help drive a strong culture of shared security responsibility across the organisation.
• Technical Collaboration: Actively engage in conversations with engineers, developers, and IT teams-understanding their technical language and workflows to align security controls with engineering realities.
• Audit & Assessment Support: Participate in external audits and assessments by gathering evidence, preparing documentation, and ensuring a smooth, successful audit cycle.

• Experience: 5+ years of experience in a related role, ideally within a regulated, cloud native business or FinTech.
• Compliance & Risk Expertise: A strong, foundational understanding of security risk management principles and hands on experience with compliance frameworks such as ISO27001, PCI DSS, or SOC2.
• Risk First & Pragmatic Mindset: A natural tendency to start with the "why" (the risk) rather than the checklist, balancing strict financial regulations with operational agility.
• Communication & Collaboration: Outstanding communication skills with a proven ability to converse with technical stakeholders, translate challenges into business risks, and influence decisions.
• Drive & Initiative: A highly proactive, self motivated mindset that actively seeks ways to improve security posture and drive change.

• Tooling: Direct, practical experience working with modern security compliance and automation platforms (e.g., Vanta or Drata).
• Programming and automation: Experience with Python or a similar scripting language, and/or using AI to improve productivity through automation.
