Why Socure? Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day. We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision.

As an International Data Acquisition Manager at Socure, you will be instrumental in expanding and managing our global data assets to power Socure’s identity verification, fraud prevention, and compliance solutions.

This role is especially critical as Socure deepens its international investments, building in-region capabilities and expanding its product support in the EU, UK, LATAM, and other key markets.

What You'll Do Vendor and Data Management Support the evaluation, onboarding, and ongoing management of third-party data vendors across multiple international markets and product lines, ensuring alignment with business priorities and needs. Assist in preparing RFIs, RFPs, diligence materials, and vendor assessments to evaluate provider capabilities, data quality, compliance posture, operational fit, and commercial value.
