Equal Access to High-Quality Education Moves Our World Forward Meet Cadmus!

At Cadmus, we believe every student should have equal opportunity to achieve academic excellence; that's why we're changing how the world learns!

Cadmus is a global EdTech company purposefully built for the higher education sector to break down global learning barriers by providing educators and diverse student cohorts with access to high-quality learning and assessment. Built on rich, student-centric values, Cadmus empowers individuals to achieve their highest potential and graduate with the critical skills and knowledge to profoundly impact our workforces, communities, and evolving world.

A Bold Plan for Global Impact

At Cadmus, we're working hard in pursuit of an ambitious, world-shaping goal : to provide 1 billion students with access to high-quality education by 2050.

That's why we need a dedicated and skilled IT & Security Lead team member to join our efforts in transforming education.

Requirements

  • Deep expertise in achieving and maintaining key security certifications like ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus
  • A proven track record of managing vulnerability assessments, penetration tests, and remediation cycles
  • Significant experience in fast-paced startup or small-scale companies, understanding how to make smart, risk-based tradeoffs rather than "gold-plated" systems
  • A pragmatic problem-solver responsible for driving organisation-wide compliance, creating sensible policies, and managing exceptions smartly and quickly
  • A massive plus would be technical skills in Python scripting or full-stack development, enabling process automation and collaboration with the engineering team
  • The ability to balance strategic GRC (Governance, Risk, Compliance) with hands-on IT operations and SecOps

You Will :

  • Strategy & Governance : Develop, implement, and own the company-wide security, compliance, and IT roadmap. Stay up to date with evolving threats, vulnerabilities, and regulatory requirements
  • Certification & Audits : Lead the end-to-end process for achieving and maintaining critical certifications (e.g., ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus), interfacing directly with auditors. Lead internal and external audits, and manage third-party security assessments
  • Customer Trust & Vendor Management : Respond to and complete customer security questionnaires and due diligence requests. Provide strategic guidance and oversight to vendors, ensuring adherence to agreed-upon SLAs and KPIs
  • Policy & Operations : Define, document, and enforce security and IT policies across the organization. You will establish and manage a pragmatic process for handling exceptions
  • Security Operations (SecOps) : Manage and coordinate all vulnerability assessments and penetration testing, overseeing the timely remediation of findings. Implement and manage security tooling for threat detection, incident response, and data protection
  • Incident Response : Act as the primary incident commander for any security events or breaches, managing the full lifecycle from detection to post-mortem. Ensure excellent communication to stakeholders, providing timely and accurate updates during incidents
  • IT Operations : Oversee all internal IT functions, including helpdesk operations, hardware / software provisioning (macOS / Windows), asset management, and MDM solutions
  • Identity & Access Management (IAM) : Administer core SaaS platforms (e.g., Google Workspace / Microsoft 365) and own the IAM strategy, ensuring secure and scalable processes for onboarding, offboarding, and access control
  • Collaboration : Partner with the Engineering team to embed security best practices into the SDLC (DevSecOps) and advise on product security
  • Benefits

  • Learning allowances; because we don't just have words on a website, we genuinely do what we say and provide educational opportunities to all (including the Cadmus team)
  • A diverse and inclusive workplace where there are no barriers to anyone succeeding
  • A surrounding team of mission-driven individuals who genuinely love what they do
  • Hiring Process

    Please apply online with your resume, and instead of a cover letter, we would love you to answer a few questions.

    While we review your application, get to know us by visiting cadmus.io (check out our values quiz!) and following our social channels (Linkedin, Facebook and Twitter).
