This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, which manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Corporate Security Manager based in Germany.
As Corporate Security Manager, you will lead the development and execution of a comprehensive security strategy across international operations. You will oversee internal investigations, fraud prevention, employee-related security risks, background screening, and physical security. In this leadership role, you will manage a team of specialists, strengthen investigation standards, and ensure effective risk mitigation across sensitive business functions. Working closely with Legal, HR, Finance, Risk, Cyber Defense, and operational leaders, you will turn investigation findings into practical control improvements. You will also contribute to crisis preparedness, executive safety, and business continuity initiatives. This is an opportunity to shape a mature corporate security function in a dynamic, international environment where sound judgment, accountability, and operational resilience are essential.
Accountabilities:
- Lead the Corporate Security function: Define the operating model, strategic priorities, methodologies, quality standards, and team development plans while managing workloads, delegating responsibilities, and overseeing escalations within your authority.
- Oversee internal investigations: Manage case intake, prioritization, evidence requirements, interview coordination, documentation, decision logs, quality reviews, and formal case closure. Lead complex or sensitive investigations involving insider misuse, privileged access abuse, trading or administrative systems, financial processes, payments, and operational fraud.
- Strengthen investigation practices: Guide analysts in investigative research and OSINT activities, ensure evidence is handled appropriately, and coordinate relevant customer-account evidence handovers with Customer Support while respecting established responsibilities and authorization boundaries.
- Manage background screening: Oversee screening activities for sensitive roles and coordinate with HR, Talent Acquisition, and Legal to ensure findings, limitations, and recommended actions are documented and reviewed through the appropriate decision-making channels.
- Improve internal controls: Direct employee-misuse control initiatives across Trading and Finance. Collaborate with system owners, DevOps, Data, Risk & Dealing, Back Office, Finance, and Legal to establish data requirements, assess findings, identify control weaknesses, and drive corrective actions.
- Monitor remediation and risk exposure: Track recurring issues, control gaps, outstanding commitments, and formal risk decisions. Verify remediation evidence and escalate overdue critical actions, unresolved ownership disputes, and material security concerns.
