Security and Information Risk Advisor
We are seeking a Security and Information Risk Advisor to support the effective management of information security, technology risk and data protection across a complex organisation. This role will provide trusted advice to stakeholders, helping them understand security requirements, identify potential risks and implement practical, proportionate controls. You will contribute to a strong risk-aware culture while ensuring that security considerations are embedded into business change, operational processes and third-party relationships.
Key responsibilities will include conducting security and information risk assessments; advising on policies, standards and control frameworks; reviewing risks associated with projects, systems, suppliers and cloud services; and supporting the development and tracking of remediation plans. You will maintain accurate risk documentation, prepare reports and management information, and contribute to governance forums and assurance activities. The role will also involve supporting audits, incident reviews, business continuity planning and the assessment of compliance with relevant legal, regulatory and industry requirements. You will work closely with technology, privacy, procurement, internal audit and business teams to promote consistent and effective security practices.
We are looking for experience in information security, technology risk, governance, compliance or a related discipline, with a practical understanding of risk assessment and control design. Knowledge of recognised frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST, COBIT or equivalent standards is desirable, as is experience working with third-party risk, data protection and security assurance. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or Auditor, are advantageous. You will need strong analytical, communication and influencing skills, the confidence to challenge constructively, and the ability to explain complex security issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A proactive, organised and collaborative approach is essential.
