Wise is a global technology company, building the best way to move and manage the world’s money. Min fees. Max ease. Full speed. Whether people and businesses are sending money to another country, spending abroad, or making and receiving international payments, Wise is on a mission to make their lives easier and save them money. As part of our team, you will be helping us create an entirely new network for the world's money. For everyone, everywhere.

Job Description

We are looking for an IT SOX expert to join our mission and help us build a global platform that’s scalable, reliable, and secure. The Security Controls team plays a vital role in safeguarding Wise’s complex IT landscape. We specialise in the comprehensive testing, assessment, and continuous improvement of technology-related controls. This role will require you to drive scope rationalization, dependency mapping, and control optimization.

Your Mission

  • Scope Rationalization & Optimization: Analyze and challenge existing IT SOX scope across applications and infrastructure. Identify duplicate, redundant, or over-engineered ITGCs/ITACs and propose enhancements.
  • New System Onboarding: Establish RACMs (Risk and Control Matrices) and identify necessary ITGCs and ITACs for newly in-scope SOX applications and platforms.
  • Dependency & System Mapping: Document and maintain end-to-end dependency maps (upstream/downstream data flows, infrastructure ties, and automated interfaces) for management review.
  • Controls Testing: Where needed, support control testing (Design & Operating Effectiveness) across our cloud infrastructure and SaaS landscape.
  • Stakeholder Management: Partner with key stakeholders across Finance, Risk, Security, Platform to effectively communicate SOX 404 requirements and expectations.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Qualifications

A bit about you:

  • SOX Implementation: You have demonstrable experience with first-time SOX audits in cloud-native environments. You understand how compliance frameworks map to dynamic infrastructures.
  • Cloud-Native Mindset: You understand how Change Management works in a CI/CD pipeline and how Access Management works in a microservices architecture. Experience with AWS, Terraform, GitHub, Jira, Okta, and SailPoint is preferred.
  • Scope & RACM Quality: You know what a good RACM looks like and can look at a system architecture diagram or control framework and spot where coverage is either missing or excessively duplicative.
  • Clear Communicator: You can translate technical architecture details into audit-ready documentation while explaining compliance "whys" clearly to engineers.
