Technical Security Architect
We are seeking an experienced Technical Security Architect to design, develop and govern secure technology solutions across a complex and evolving environment. You will work closely with engineering, infrastructure, applications, data, cloud and risk teams to ensure security is embedded throughout the design, delivery and operational lifecycle. The role will involve translating business and technology requirements into practical security architectures, identifying risks and dependencies, and providing clear recommendations that support resilient and scalable services.
Your responsibilities will include defining security patterns, principles, standards and reference architectures; reviewing solution designs and technical changes; and advising on identity and access management, network security, cloud platforms, endpoint protection, encryption, vulnerability management, monitoring and incident response capabilities. You will contribute to threat modelling, security risk assessments and architecture review forums, ensuring that risks are documented, prioritised and appropriately addressed. You will also support the development of security roadmaps, provide technical input to audits and regulatory reviews, and help maintain consistency across on-premises, hybrid and cloud environments.
To succeed in this role, you will have significant experience in security architecture, engineering or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of enterprise infrastructure and modern cloud technologies. Experience with architectural frameworks, secure development practices, zero-trust principles, network and application security, and common security controls is essential. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, SABSA, CCSP, TOGAF or comparable credentials would be advantageous. You will be confident communicating complex technical issues to both specialist and non-specialist audiences, influencing stakeholders at all levels and balancing security requirements with business priorities. Strong analytical, documentation and problem-solving skills are required, along with a proactive approach to collaboration and continuous improvement.
