Listing Description
Zensurance is a fast-growing start-up turned “scale-up”, InsurTech company that is disrupting the property and casualty insurance market.
At Zensurance, we want to empower small businesses across Canada to thrive by offering an honest, simplified, and modern approach to insurance. We are boldly going where no insurance broker has gone before!
This role plays an integral part in Zensurance's growth as a company, as this is the very first information security role. Zensurance is growing rapidly, which means our commitment to information security is becoming even more critical for us.
In this role, you will establish and maintain a company-wide information security management program to ensure that information assets are adequately protected. In addition, you will be responsible for identifying, evaluating and reporting on information security risks in a manner that meets compliance and regulatory requirements and aligns with and supports the enterprise's risk posture.
You walk into this role with sound knowledge of business management and a working knowledge of information security technologies. The ISM will proactively work with business units to implement practices that meet defined policies and standards for information security. You will also oversee a variety of IT-related risk management activities and act as an interface between the management's strategic and process-based activities,
As an ideal candidate, you are a thought leader, a consensus builder, and an integrator of people and processes. While the Information Security Lead is the leader of the security program, you must also be able to coordinate disparate drivers, constraints and personalities while maintaining objectivity and a strong understanding that security is just one of the business's activities. It cannot be undertaken at the expense of the enterprise's ability to deliver on its goals and objectives.
This role is an individual contributor role reporting to the VP of Engineering and working closely with the IT Manager. This position has the potential to move into a role with direct reports at some point in the future as we grow our enterprise's information security function.
This is a remote role, and the team member can work from anywhere in Canada. #LI-Remote
