Security Governance, Risk and Compliance Analyst

Job Description

Security GRC Analyst – Data & Security GRC Team

Trust unlocks our greatest potential.

For decades, the clearing of payments remained unchanged and unchallenged. We asked, what if there was a better way? What if we could make banking infrastructure faster, safer, more reliable, and easier to access for all? Here is where you can think radically and responsibly to find the best solution.

What happens when you know you’re inherently trusted? Trust creates safety. Safety encourages you to be brave, to challenge, to fail, to try new things and to execute. At ClearBank everything revolves around trust. We’re not expected to earn it, but we are expected not to break it. We’re trusted to own it. To solve issues in the moment. To know a good risk when we see one, and the judgement to know that ‘can’ doesn’t always mean you ‘should’.

What you can expect

ClearBank is a place where you can do things differently and challenge the status quo. We will give you a high level of autonomy and transparency, and we trust you to make the right decisions for the bank.

If that excites you, how about joining our Risk and Compliance team as a Security GRC Analyst? Reporting to the Security Governance, Risk & Compliance Manager, you will play a critical role in strengthening ClearBank’s security posture across its supply chain and Embedded Banking Partner ecosystem. You will also lead the design and delivery of engaging security training and awareness programmes across the organisation.

Your role includes:

• Third-Party Security Risk Management

  • Monitor ClearBank’s supply chain security, ensuring supplier controls meet internal standards and regulations. Develop MI and dashboards to inform senior leaders. Collaborate with business functions including Technology, Procurement, and Legal teams to embed seamless third-party risk management within broader business activities. Maintain documentation, including risk assessments and procedures.

• Security Training & Awareness

  • Design and deliver engaging security training sessions—online, in-person, and written—tailored to diverse audiences across the business. Champion a culture of security and hygiene at all levels.

• Security Evangelism

  • Act as a visible and enthusiastic advocate for security best practices, helping embed security into ClearBank’s culture and daily operations.

• Threat Awareness & Response

  • Stay informed on external security events and trends, tools, and technologies - assessing their relevance and potential impact on ClearBank’s operations and risk landscape.

• Tooling & Automation

  • Leverage platforms such as Omnea, Panorays, and Microsoft Purview to support third-party risk management, data governance, and compliance monitoring.

• Governance & Compliance Support

  • Contribute to the maintenance of ClearBank’s ISO 27001-aligned security governance framework, supporting audits, risk assessments, and continuous improvement initiatives.

What we're looking for:

• Experience in a security governance, risk, or compliance role, ideally within a regulated industry or ISO 27001-certified organisation.

• Strong communication skills and confidence in delivering training and awareness sessions across multiple formats.

• A creative and proactive mindset, with a passion for spreading security culture.

• Familiarity with third-party risk management tools (e.g. Omnea, Panorays) and data governance platforms (e.g. Microsoft Purview).

• Awareness of current security threats and trends, and the ability to translate them into actionable insights for ClearBank.

What makes a great ClearBank team member? Does this sound like you?

• You focus on solutions and positive outcomes, thinking radically and responsibly to find the best result for our customers, your colleagues and the bank;

• You actively seek feedback from others to drive your growth and development, always assuming positive intent from others and develop strong, trusting relationships with your colleagues and customers: you really, genuinely care;

• You always strive for the highest quality, but you know that done is better than perfect; you welcome a challenge knowing that you learn as you go and iterate;

• You are excited to build a bank from its early days, and know that this comes with a flexible mindset, rolling up your sleeves and getting out of your comfort zone;

• ‘I’ before ’we’, isn’t in your vocabulary

*Regretfully we are not able to sponsor applicants for immigration purposes at the current time.
