Jobs in Seoul, South Korea

About the role

Binance is seeking a Chief Information Security Officer to lead the information security function across our Korea operations during a critical period of regulatory growth. This is a high-impact leadership role requiring someone who can bridge enterprise-grade cloud security with the distinct regulatory landscape of Korea. The CISO will be the primary security advocate internally and with regulators, owning both the technical security posture and the compliance narrative.

What you'll bring

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Information Technology, Cyber Security, or a related field
• 10+ years of information security experience, with at least 3–5 years in a senior leadership role (CISO, Head of Security, or equivalent)
• Hands-on experience with ISMS or ISMS-P certification in Korea
• Deep familiarity with Korean financial/digital asset regulatory requirements (FSC guidelines, PIPA, KISA standards)
• Strong understanding of cloud security and modern enterprise security architectures
• Proven ability to collaborate across functions — you work with engineering, compliance, and legal, not around them
• Bilingual English and Korean is required to be able to coordinate with overseas partners and stakeholders
• Strong ownership mindset — you drive outcomes, not status updates
• Prior experience at a financial institution, crypto exchange, or fintech
• Experience managing a security function during a regulatory examination or enforcement period
• Experience engaging directly with regulatory bodies
• Relevant certifications: CISSP, CISM, CISA, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor, or equivalent
