Job Description

At CoinJar, we've made cryptocurrency useful and accessible to clients for over a decade. Established in Australia in 2013, CoinJar has since built a trusted platform where clients benefit from intuitive tools to buy, sell, spend and trade cryptocurrency. Following our successful Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) registration, CoinJar has now launched in Ireland. CoinJar operates through local subsidiaries in Australia, the United Kingdom and Ireland (CoinJar Europe Limited). This entails building relationships with local regulators and obtaining local licenses wherever it operates or aims to operate. Currently CoinJar is seeking a Markets in Crypto Assets Regulation (MiCAR) licence and is building out the EU team from Dublin.

About the Role
The CoinJar group takes pride in a track record of operational excellence, enabled by robust technology and security practices. As our Chief Information Officer (PCF-49), you will be a key leader responsible for the strategic direction and operational excellence of our IT infrastructure and security. This role reports directly to the CEO and requires a deep understanding of information security, data privacy, and IT governance within the context of a regulated financial services environment.

The successful candidate will manage operational resilience and IT risk. This includes conducting risk assessments, developing mitigation strategies, and ensuring business continuity in the event of a breach. You will also serve as the primary contact for cybersecurity and data protection matters. While employment is under CoinJar's European subsidiary, success in the role will see you work closely with the Engineering, Product, and Compliance teams across the group to ensure a coherent approach to information and security of the global platform.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, information technology, or a related field.

  • 10+ years of experience in IT management, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role.

  • Proven experience in developing and implementing IT strategies and cybersecurity programs in a regulated framework.

  • Deep understanding of IT infrastructure, network security, and cloud computing.

  • Strong knowledge of data privacy regulations and best practices.

  • Experience in the financial services or cryptocurrency industry.

  • Excellent leadership, communication, and interpersonal skills.

  • Relevant professional certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM) are a plus.

Benefits

  • Dynamic work environment within a global platform
  • Innovative company looking to grow globally
  • Flexible working arrangements
