About this role

Who we are We simplify wealth creation. Founded in 2014 in Vienna, Austria by Eric Demuth, Paul Klanschek and Christian Trummer, we’re here to help people trust themselves enough to build their financial freedom — for now and the future. Our user-friendly, trade-everything platform empowers both first-time investors and seasoned experts to invest in the cryptocurrencies, crypto indices, stocks*, precious metals and commodities* they want — with any sized budget, 24/7.

Our global team works across different cultures and time zones, bringing our products to more than 7 million customers, making us one of Europe’s safest and most secure platforms that powers modern investing. Headquartered in Austria but operating across Europe, our products are built by fast-moving, talented, “roll-up-your-sleeves-and-make-it-happen” kind of people. It’s these diverse perspectives and innovative minds operating as ONE TEAM that keep Bitpanda at the cutting edge of our industry.

So if you’re someone who thinks big, moves fast and wants to make an impact right from day one, then get ready to join our industry-changing team. Let’s go! Your mission As an Information Security Senior Specialist, you will lead and scale major elements of our security governance in a regulated fintech environment. You’ll own complex, cross-functional GRC domains (e.g., ISMS/ISO 27001 at scale, regulatory readiness, enterprise technology risk, third-party risk for critical vendors, compliance in key partnerships), drive measurable improvement in control effectiveness, and act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders.

What you’ll do Information Security Operating Model & GRC Ownership: Own and evolve one or more GRC domains end-to-end (e.g., ISMS operations, BCM, risk governance), including strategy, annual plan, cadences, and success metrics. Drive control rationalization and proportionality: tighten controls for critical/regulated assets and streamline low-risk areas to ensure an efficient, risk-aligned posture. Risk Management & Strategic Decision Support: Facilitate and challenge high-impact risk assessments (new products, major architectural changes, critical vendors), ensuring consistency and defensible rationale.
