About Freetrade

Freetrade’s mission is to become the default place to invest. Investing has been too complicated and expensive for too long, keeping millions from making the most of their savings.

We’re changing that.

We’re building our team and looking for people who are excited to reshape how our customers invest and grow their wealth. If you’re driven by solving complex problems and building innovative products, you’ll fit right in.

2026 is a big year for us. Last year, we announced a game changing deal to become part of the IG Group. We’ll continue to operate as an independent business while gaining access to the resources and support of an established leader in the space.

This year, we’re accelerating our roadmap and taking our products to the next level. We’re building new features like mutual funds, bonds, and family investment tools. We’re also exploring how we can leverage AI to deliver an even better experience for our customers.

At Freetrade, we're on a mission to make investing accessible to everyone. We operate in a highly regulated financial environment where security isn't just a function, it's a foundation. As we scale, we're looking for a sharp, motivated Security Intern to join our Security, Privacy and Infrastructure team for the summer and contribute to real, meaningful work from day one.

About the Role

This is a hands-on internship, not a shadowing exercise. Whether you're a student, a recent graduate, or making your first move into security, you'll be embedded in the security team, working on operational tasks and a dedicated project designed to directly improve security at Freetrade. Your time will be split roughly 50/50 between supporting ongoing security operations and owning a scoped project with a clear outcome.

You'll be supported throughout, with a defined onboarding plan, pre-scoped tasks, daily check-ins with your manager, and weekly visibility with the Director of SPI.

What You'll Work On

Remediation: Vulnerability triage and proof-of-concept testing, putting your offensive security and pentesting skills to practical use.
GRC: Supporting vendor security review processes, assessing third-party risk against our security standards.
Automation: Assisting with AI tool adoption assessments, helping evaluate new tools for security and privacy risk.

What You Bring

Technical skills:

Foundational knowledge of offensive security, pentesting, or bug bounty practices.
Comfortable writing scripts or code in any language, Python preferred.
Solid understanding of core security concepts and principles.
Any hands-on experience with vulnerability assessment tools or CTFs is a plus.

Soft skills:

Open to feedback and acts on it quickly.
Fast learner who is comfortable with ambiguity and can ramp up independently.
Clear and concise communicator, written and verbal.
Reliable, organised, and takes ownership of their time and commitments.
Collaborative and comfortable working across teams.

Programme Structure

Duration: 10 weeks
Onboarding: Weeks 1 to 2, structured ramp plan with a pre-defined task list so you hit the ground running.
Split: 50% operational security work, 50% dedicated project to improve security at Freetrade.

Support and Management

Direct reporting line to the Security function lead.
Daily check-ins with your intern manager.
Weekly skip-level with the Director of SPI for feedback, alignment, and visibility.
All work will be well-scoped and documented before you start, no vague briefs.

What's in it for You

Paid internship with real responsibilities from day one.
Work on live security challenges in a highly regulated fintech environment.
Learn from an experienced security team with deep expertise across offensive security, privacy, and infrastructure.
Build a portfolio of tangible, real-world security work to accelerate your career.
A genuine pathway to a full-time role as part of Freetrade's 2027 headcount plan for high performers.

Please note, applicants must be 18 years of age or older at the time of application and legally eligible to work in the relevant location.

We are an Equal Opportunity employer committed to a diverse and representative team. Whatever your race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability - we want to hear from you.
