Company: Navro – Pioneering the Future of Payments

ARCHITECTING TRUST: INFORMATION SECURITY MANAGER

This isn’t just another Information Security role. No legacy systems. No corporate red tape. No coasting. This is about building something from the ground up. Fast.
We’re Navro, a rapidly scaling B2B payments startup, and we’re looking for a bold, proactive, and hands-on Information Security Manager to help safeguard our platform and operations. This is your chance to shape our security posture, instill a security first-mindset, ensure compliance with international standards, and make decisions that impact the entire business.
You won’t have layers of approval slowing you down. You will have the freedom to make real, impactful decisions from day one. This isn’t a passenger role. We’re bringing you in for your expertise and your relentless drive. You will be responsible for understanding our information assets, identifying emerging threats, and implementing robust security measures that protect Navro and our clients.

WHO WE ARE

We are transforming payments for global platforms and e-commerce businesses. As the world’s first payments curation platform, we simplify cross-border transactions by uniting best-in-class infrastructure into a seamless ecosystem, enabling businesses to scale and operate effortlessly across borders. Cross-border workforce payments are slow, expensive, and outdated. We can’t be. Businesses rely on us to pay their people accurately and on time - contractors, freelancers, and employees across the globe. When we say we’ll deliver, failure isn’t an option. If we don’t do what we said we would, people don’t get paid - not just a transaction delayed, but real workers left without wages. That means a developer in Argentina missing their paycheck, a freelancer in the Philippines unable to pay rent, or a contractor in Poland unable to get to work. No excuses. No passengers. No tolerance for politics or mediocrity.

WHAT THIS ROLE DEMANDS:

• You Own It – You’re responsible and proactive, you take the lead and make things happen.
• You Ask Questions – You don’t just gather requirements; you challenge assumptions, to make us better. Why this control, why not another way?
• You Fix What’s Broken – No waiting for permission. If it’s clunky or output is inconsistent, you dive in, solve, and fix it.
• You’re Hands-On – One hour you’re leading on an external audit, the next assessing a critical vendor’s security posture, the next you’re deep in the vulnerability rating details with DevOps.
• You Thrive in Chaos – Startups are messy. Deadlines change, priorities shift, and ambiguity is constant. You bring clarity to define workable security policies and procedures.
• You Handle the Pressure – Fast-paced. High stakes. You balance multiple projects, manage tight timelines, and keep moving forward.
• You’re Here for the Journey – This is career-defining. It’s hard, rewarding, and not for the faint-hearted. If you’re ready to grow alongside Navro, let’s build something amazing together.

WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING:

• Day-to-day responsibility for security GRC, help build version 2.0 of Navro’s Information Security Management System. Ensure compliance to international standards and regional regulatory requirements.
• Own security GRC automation tooling (Vanta) and work across the business to maintain security compliance posture.
• Successfully lead internal and external security audits - ISO 27001 / SOC2 Type II / PCI-DSS.
• Champion a company-wide culture of security awareness and operational resilience by playing a key role in defining, maintaining, and managing security incident response and threat intelligence procedures.
• Lead, curate, and report on Navro’s on-going and persistent security awareness programme including frequent phishing testing campaigns, secure development, etc.
• Work with IT, SRE, and other key stakeholders on implementing and maintaining security policies and standards including disaster recovery and business continuity testing.
• Work with Sales and Operations on business critical procedures for onboarding/offboarding clients and vendors. Act as primary contact for security due diligence and assessments.
• Project manage initiatives with product and engineering teams to embed “security by design” into products, services, and processes.
• Help make Navro’s security posture a value proposition - develop a Trust Centre to easily present and provide security information. Work with Marketing to position excellent posture, certifications, and regulatory compliance as a product differentiator.
