The role
Huguenots is a business that has established an excellent reputation in the market and is now growing quickly, winning new clients and launching new product steams. As we grow, we are investing across all teams to build greater depth and are now looking for an experienced, but hands-on Cyber and Information Security Manager to join our Technology Team. This is a rare opportunity for an ambitious individual looking for rapid career progression in a fast-paced financial technology firm.
In this role, you will have the opportunity early on to manage and own projects. You will report directly to senior management and your role will involve high-level engagement with the infrastructure and information security teams at our clients (major fund management companies). The role will require you to be hands-on, taking ownership of our Cyber and Information Security Management System as well as supporting both our office based infrastructure and AWS cloud hosted environments.
This is an onsite role, based at our prestigious offices in the heart of the City of London. Across our business, all teams are office-based with a highly collaborative culture and universally strong technical skillset. You will therefore find yourself surrounded by subject matter experts, enabling you to quickly develop a strong understanding of our products and the asset management industry, if new to the sector.
