InfoSec Governance Risk and Compliance Lead

Who are we?
At UpGuard, we are replacing manual security bottlenecks with AI-driven precision. Fresh off a US$75M Series C, we are scaling our infrastructure to process 100 billion risk signals daily. This isn’t just growth; it’s a total reimagining of how the world manages cyber risk.

We build the Cyber Risk Posture Management (CRPM) platform that security teams actually love. By integrating security ratings, threat intel, and agentic AI, we empower organisations to stay ahead of an ever evolving attack surface.

We aren’t just building another tool; we’re defining a category. We provide the autonomy to ship world-class technology and the resources to do it at a global scale.

Our Operations function consists of the IT, Legal, People, Finance and Analytics teams.  We are here to be a key enabler to our other teams at UpGuard. Efficiency, scale and rich insights are some of the key contributions that this team brings to the table. We look to the future and solve really interesting challenges that will unlock Upguard’s ability to grow sustainably and efficiently through optimised systems and processes.

Why are we hiring this role?
As UpGuard continues to rapidly expand, we're looking for a seasoned InfoSec Governance Risk and Compliance Lead to spearhead our information security risk and compliance initiatives. Reporting directly to the CISO, you will own the strategy and execution of our cybersecurity compliance programs, lead cross-functional risk management efforts, and ensure our systems and processes align with world-class security standards. Additionally, you will play a critical role in supporting our procurement and vendor management pipelines, ensuring all third-party relationships meet our stringent security and compliance requirements.
