Executive Information Security Consultant (OT)
We are seeking an experienced Executive Information Security Consultant (OT) to provide strategic leadership and expert guidance across operational technology environments. In this role, you will advise senior stakeholders on the protection of industrial control systems, manufacturing technologies, critical infrastructure, and other connected operational assets. You will help shape security strategy, strengthen resilience, and ensure that cybersecurity considerations are embedded into business, engineering, and transformation initiatives.
Your responsibilities will include assessing OT security risks, developing pragmatic mitigation plans, and supporting the implementation of governance, policies, standards, and operating models. You will lead or contribute to security assessments, architecture reviews, threat modelling, incident preparedness exercises, and control improvement programmes. Working closely with IT, engineering, safety, risk, compliance, and third-party teams, you will promote secure-by-design principles while balancing availability, safety, reliability, and operational performance. You will also provide clear executive-level reporting, communicate complex technical issues in business terms, and support responses to audits, regulatory requirements, and significant security events.
The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in OT, industrial cybersecurity, or critical infrastructure security, together with a strong understanding of environments such as SCADA, DCS, PLC, or building and manufacturing control systems. Knowledge of recognised frameworks and standards, including IEC 62443, NIST, ISO 27001, or applicable regulatory requirements, is highly desirable. You should be confident engaging with executive audiences while also collaborating effectively with technical and operational specialists. Strong consulting, influencing, analytical, and written communication skills are essential, as is the ability to operate independently across complex, evolving environments. Relevant professional certifications in information security, industrial cybersecurity, risk, or audit would be advantageous.
