Role
The Corporate Security Investigations & Protective Intelligence Manager will identify and investigate threats to our people, offices, and community.
In this role, you will:
Build and run the Corporate Security investigations case management system, preferably using internal AI tools to ship quickly, and select and manage external investigative tools.
Conduct investigations in close partnership with Trust & Risk, People and Legal teams.
Serve as a member of the threat management team to determine when on-platform behavior, reports, or escalations signal a credible risk of in-person harm, and assist in threat assessment, mitigation, and response.
You’ll sit within Whatnot’s Corporate Security team and work closely with Trust & Risk, Legal, People, CyberSecurity, and IT. You’ll be hands-on in the cases and the tools while also operating as the program owner.
What You’ll Do
Protective Intelligence & Law Enforcement Outreach Management
Monitor open-source and platform signals for emerging threats, and deliver concise intelligence products to Corporate Security and business partners.
In partnership with Trust & Risk and other members of the Threat Management team, determine when on-platform issues (harassing or threatening messages, escalating disputes, concerning behavior toward hosts, sellers, or buyers) could translate into in-person incidents, and collaborate on threat assessment and recommended response.
Partner with Trust & Risk on escalation criteria and handoffs between platform enforcement and Corporate Security.
Provide protective intelligence and threat assessments to support company events, executive protection, and high-profile business activities.
Partner with Trust & Risk and Legal to map the landscape of law enforcement partners and playbooks for proactive law enforcement partnership.
Internal Investigations & Threat Management
In partnership with the People and Legal teams, conduct internal security investigations.
Support compliance with workplace violence prevention requirements, including SB 553 in California, in partnership with the Legal and People teams.
Maintain rigorous evidence handling, documentation, and confidentiality standards.
Establish processes for sharing investigative findings, threat assessments, and recommended security actions with appropriate internal stakeholders while maintaining confidentiality.
Case Management System (Build) & Investigative Tooling Management
Design, build, and manage Whatnot’s investigations and case management system, a purpose-built alternative to platforms like Ontic, using internal AI tools to develop.
Source, evaluate, and manage investigative and intelligence tools, such as Clear, TLO, or other public-records and OSINT platforms.
Own vendor onboarding, budgets, contracts, and renewals. In partnership with the Cybersecurity and Legal teams, set permissible-use, privacy, and access standards so tools are used lawfully and consistently.
Location & Travel
This role will be based in one of the Whatnot hubs - NYC, San Francisco, Los Angeles with a preference for candidates in New York City. The successful candidate must live within commuting distance of their hub location. Expected in-office cadence: ~2 days per week. This role will be expected to occasionally respond to urgent security incidents outside of normal work hours and will include periodic travel (~10%).
You
Curious about who thrives at Whatnot? We’ve found that embodying a low ego, growth mindset, and high-impact drive goes a long way here.
We’re looking for someone who’s passionate about keeping people safe while enabling the business to thrive. You bring both a deep skillset and empathy to your work, thrive in a fast-moving environment, and lead with calm, informed confidence.
What You’ll Bring:
7+ years of experience in corporate or government investigations and protective intelligence.
Proven experience managing end-to-end investigations, including workplace violence, insider risk, and external threats.
Experience building/vibe-coding purpose built tooling with AI (we use Claude most prominently at Whatnot).
Deep familiarity with the investigative and intelligence tool landscape (for example Clear, OSINT and social media monitoring platforms, and case management platforms like Ontic), and the ability to articulate which tools are most valuable for this body of work and why.
Sound judgment on when a concerning behavior warrants escalation, intervention, or law enforcement engagement.
Strong understanding of permissible use, privacy, and data-handling requirements.
Experience working with local and federal law enforcement agencies.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Strong discretion, sound ethics, and the ability to handle sensitive, confidential matters.
Bonus Points
ASIS PCI (Professional Certified Investigator), ATAP Certified Threat Manager (CTM) or similar certification.
Experience with trust and safety, marketplace, social, gaming, or live/real-time product environments, and with online-to-offline threat escalation.

Tips for Your Remote Corporate Security Manager Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote corporate security manager openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly without sorting through location-based listings.
Show your remote security work in writing
Remote hiring managers cannot observe you in person, so your application needs to show written output: policy documents you authored, risk assessment summaries, or investigation reports. Concrete writing samples from past roles close the gap that a resume leaves open.
Highlight multi-site or distributed program experience
Remote corporate security manager roles go to candidates who have managed security programs across locations without requiring physical presence. Call out any experience coordinating with remote teams, managing vendors across time zones, or running programs that operated without a central office.
Prepare for async-first remote interviews
Many remote security employers use written screening exercises or recorded video responses before a live interview. Practice explaining your approach to investigations, vendor risk, and policy development in clear, concise written form, since that skill is exactly what the job requires.
Remote Corporate Security Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote corporate security manager job?
Target companies with distributed workforces, since those organizations already have security infrastructure built around remote operations and are most likely to hire corporate security managers who never come into an office. Remote employers screen heavily for self-direction, clear written communication, and the ability to run investigations, vendor risk reviews, and policy programs without in-person oversight. Certifications like CPP or CISSP, documented experience managing remote or multi-site security programs, and a demonstrated comfort with async communication tools give candidates a clear edge.
Which companies hire remote corporate security managers?
Employers currently hiring remote corporate security managers include Whatnot, Pinterest, and GitLab, per current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Remote-first technology firms, large financial institutions with distributed workforces, and healthcare organizations managing multi-site operations are among the most consistent hirers of corporate security managers in fully remote arrangements.
Can you get a remote corporate security manager job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry roles in corporate security are harder to land because employers expect candidates to operate independently from day one without on-site mentorship. The most accessible entry paths are remote-first companies with structured onboarding, contract or project-based security analyst roles that build a portfolio of documented risk assessments, and internal transitions from adjacent roles like compliance or IT security. Showing documented results, even from volunteer or academic security projects, can substitute for formal experience.
Do you need a degree for remote corporate security manager jobs?
Not always. Many remote employers weigh professional certifications like CPP, PSP, or CISSP alongside or above a formal degree, particularly when a candidate can show documented outcomes from past security programs. Demonstrated ability to manage vendor risk, write policy, lead investigations, and communicate clearly in writing often carries more weight remotely than the credential itself, since day-to-day performance is visible through written work products rather than in-office presence.
Which industries hire the most remote corporate security managers?
The sectors hiring the most remote corporate security managers are Technology & Software, Agriculture & Farming, and Non-Profit & Social Services, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These industries rely on distributed teams and multi-site operations that require centralized security oversight delivered remotely rather than from a single physical headquarters.
