Hybrid role to be based in our Edinburgh office.
Seccl is the Octopus-owned embedded investment platform that’s on a mission to helping more people to invest – and invest well.
We’re B-Corp certified with an amazing product-market fit, impressive early traction and the potential to transform an outdated industry, for the better. We've been growing fast and will scale even faster over the next few years.
We’re also proud to be part of Octopus, the £multi billion group that's on a mission to breathe new life into broken industries, through companies like Octopus Energy, Octopus Investments and Octopus Money.

Looking to start or build your career in information security and digital operational resilience?
We’re looking for an Information security and digital operational resilience analyst to join our Governance, Risk and Compliance team. You’ll report into our Head of Information security and data protection officer, who’ll support your development and help you build your knowledge as you grow into the role.
You’ll be part of our 2nd Line of Defence team, helping Seccl protect its people, customers, systems and operations. You don’t need to come with lots of technical experience. What matters most is that you’re curious, proactive, a strong communicator and keen to learn.
Over time, you’ll develop valuable knowledge across cybersecurity, technology risk and operational resilience, with the opportunity to become a subject matter expert in how we keep Seccl’s important services running safely and reliably.

You’re not comfortable working in a fast-paced environment. Our speed and scalability are what set us apart; you need to be able to act quickly and think on your feet
You struggle to follow through on ideas. We value people who do what they say they will. If you care about something, you have the freedom here to make it happen
You don’t like change. You’ll get on great here if you relish the ambiguity of rapid growth and are willing to embrace uncertainty

Seccl is the Octopus-owned embedded investment platform that’s helping more people to invest – and invest well. Our sector is being held back by old tech, dismal processes and misaligned interests. Together they create pointless complexity for financial planning and investment professionals, and provide outdated, overpriced experiences for customers. We’re on a mission to fix it. We help forward-thinking financial planners, wealth managers and investment platforms to reimagine their business and client experience – empowering them to build better, more sustainable and more valuable operations, and meet the digital demands of the future, not the baseline expectations of the past. And we do it by reimagining their technology – with a low-cost, hyper-efficient and (genuinely) API-first technology infrastructure that handles millions of requests every day, and powers the portfolios of approaching 1 million investors. A regulated custodian and ISA/SIPP provider, we combine the disruptive mindset and ambitious mission to shake things up, with the commitment and substance to not screw them up. We’re proud to be part of Octopus, the £multi-billion group that's on a mission to breathe new life into broken industries, through companies like Octopus Energy, Octopus Investments and Octopus Money.
