About Pleo Messy spend management is tricky business. And tedious processes are a lose‐lose situation for all involved, not just finance. We build spend solutions that make managing money seamless, empowering, and surprisingly effective for finance teams and employees alike – with a vision to help all businesses 'go beyond'.

Establish clear, company‐wide reporting on our vulnerability posture, giving leadership the data‐driven visibility they need.
Reduce our attack surface through technical controls, policy, and AI enablement, addressing both external threats and internal risk.
Contribute to the broader Cybersecurity team, staying connected with ongoing initiatives and helping shape our 2027 KPIs.

Build trust with engineering squads and start shifting the security culture, so teams come to you early rather than late.
Integrate into the Cybersecurity team, connecting with DevSecOps, SecOps, and Risk & Compliance, and begin shaping the roadmap and KPIs that carry the program into 2027.
We're committed to helping you develop your career, whether that means taking on bigger projects, stepping into broader leadership, or acquiring new skills.
