The role

🌍 Remote

Salmon is a technology-driven financial company building a banking and lending platform across Southeast Asia, starting in the Philippines.

We combine global fintech expertise with deep local market knowledge to make financial services simple, accessible, and useful for millions of people across the region.

7M+ app downloads. 2M+ monthly active users. 7,000+ partner stores. US$310M+ raised from leading global investors.

Manila-based, globally distributed, and hybrid-first - our team spans 45+ countries.

If you want to solve complex problems at scale and impact how millions of people access and manage money, come build with us.

Southeast Asia's fintech moment starts here.

You'll own information security risk management, control assurance, and ISO 27001 ISMS governance across a regulated group spanning banking, consumer finance, and technology.

What you'll do

  • Form an independent view of security risk and challenge whether proposed controls actually address it, working directly with the Group CISO

  • Assess control design and operating effectiveness across areas such as IAM, cloud, endpoint security, monitoring, vulnerability management, data protection, and secure development

  • Turn risk and control data into clear, decision-ready reporting for governance forums

What you'll own

  • Own the security risk process end to end: assessment, treatment, acceptance, monitoring, and reporting

  • Maintain the risk register and challenge risk assessments and treatment plans so residual risk, ownership, and remediation status stay current

  • Maintain the security control framework, test controls using evidence, data, sampling, or technical validation, and drive remediation with control owners

  • Maintain the ISO 27001 ISMS: policies and standards, Statement of Applicability, risk records, control evidence, exceptions, and key security registers

  • Track control deficiencies, findings, exceptions, and remediation actions

  • Define KRIs and control metrics, and flag where management decisions or escalation are needed
