Job Summary

We are assisting in our client in finding a strategic Information Manager to lead the way in how our organisation governs, secures, and leverages its information assets. Reporting to the Information Security Lead, you’ll shape and implement data governance and retention strategies, ensure regulatory compliance (with a strong focus on GDPR and ROPA), and partner with key teams—from Legal to IT—to embed best-in-class information practices across the business. If you thrive at the intersection of policy and practicality, and can turn complex requirements into actionable results, this is your opportunity to make a real impact.  What you’ll do: Information Management and Strategy: Develop and implement an enterprise-wide information management and retention strategy that aligns with business objectives and compliance requirements. Ensure information assets are effectively structured, maintained, and utilised to support strategic decision-making and operational efficiency. Define and enforce policies for data classification, lifecycle management, and records retention, ensuring data integrity and accessibility.  Data Governance and Compliance: Establish and enforce policies to govern data ownership, classification, and lifecycle, ensuring alignment with financial regulations such as GDPR, DORA, and other industry frameworks. Work closely with the Data Privacy team to align data governance practices, particularly focusing on data retention policies and supporting the maintenance and continuous improvement of the Record of Processing Activities (ROPA). Ensure compliance with data retention policies, monitoring adherence across all business units. Lead the development and implementation of a data governance framework, including data stewardship, accountability, and quality standards. Act as a liaison between IT, legal, and regulatory authorities to ensure adherence to applicable compliance standards and reporting obligations. Oversee data audits and develop compliance reports to demonstrate adherence to regulatory requirements and internal policies.  Information Security and Risk Management: Implement security controls to protect sensitive data and financial information from cyber threats, unauthorised access, and data breaches. Collaborate with security teams to enhance incident response and business continuity plans related to data protection and retention. Ensure secure handling, storage, and disposal of information assets to mitigate risks related to data loss, leakage, or unauthorised access.  Stakeholder Engagement: Work closely with internal stakeholders to align information management practices with business needs. Partner with IT teams to ensure data retention, storage, and access policies align with regulatory requirements and operational goals. Manage vendor relationships related to data management tools and services, ensuring third-party compliance with security and retention policies. Performance Monitoring and Reporting: Develop and track key performance indicators (KPIs) for information management, security, and compliance. Provide senior management with strategic insights based on data analysis, system performance, and compliance trends. Ensure documentation of data management policies and procedures is up to date and effectively communicated across the organisation.  Your expertise: Proven track record of 5 years in IT Information Systems, Data Governance, or Information Security roles within the financial services industry. Strong knowledge of financial systems, data governance, and regulatory compliance frameworks, including GDPR, DORA, and ISO 27001. Expertise in cybersecurity best practices, risk management, and IT systems. Experience in implementing data retention strategies, managing data loss prevention (DLP) tools, and leading compliance audits. Familiarity with industry standards and best practices related to information security governance and regulatory reporting.  Why work for us? Want to work for an organization that solves complex real-world problems with innovative software solutions? At iOCO, we believe anything is possible with modern technology, software, and development expertise. We are continuously pushing the boundaries of innovative solutions across multiple industries using an array of technologies.  You will be part of a consultancy, working with some of the most knowledgeable minds in the industry on interesting solutions across different business domains.  Our culture of continuous learning will ensure that you will have all the opportunities, tools, and support to hone and grow your craft.
