Head of Security

About the job

We’re looking for a hands-on Head of Security to take ownership of physical and internal security across our company. This includes securing our offices, employee devices, Wi-Fi and networks, identity and access management, and helping shape security standards for internal services and engineering teams — without adding unnecessary friction.

You’ll coordinate across teams in Denmark, Finland, Italy, Germany, and France, and ensure that our security is consistent, pragmatic, and scalable.

What you'll do

• Lead physical security setup and monitoring across all offices (entry systems, alarms, visitor policy)
• Manage and roll out Ubiquiti UniFi (or equivalent) systems across all locations
• Standardize physical security across our international footprint

• Define and enforce least privilege access across internal systems
• Roll out and maintain 2FA, password manager usage, and device security policies
• Standardize and secure Wi-Fi networks, local networking gear, and firewalls

• Work with engineering teams to promote security best practices in internal tools and services
• Help define guidelines for access control, authentication, and secrets management
• Preferred: experience with SAST/DAST tools to support secure development practices

• Create practical, easy-to-follow internal security policies
• Lead company-wide security awareness efforts (phishing, device hygiene, etc.)
• Preferred: experience with frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, or similar

• Collaborate with local office managers and IT/ops teams across Europe
• Travel as needed to assess, improve, and align office security setups
• Continuously monitor and improve the company’s security posture

Who you are

• 4+ years of experience in IT, workplace ops, or security
• Hands-on experience with office tech, access systems, and endpoint/device security
• Experience with Ubiquiti UniFi or similar infrastructure tools
• Familiarity with SAST/DAST tools and secure development principles (e.g., OWASP Top 10)
• Strong communicator — able to work across tech and non-tech teams, countries, and roles
• Bonus: experience in a fast-growing, multi-office company

Why Flatpay?

• Ownership of physical and internal security across multiple regions
• Supportive leadership and freedom to shape your approach
• Flat structure and a strong action-over-process culture
• Competitive salary and benefits
• Occasional travel to our European offices (with expenses covered)
