I&S Security Assurance Manager
We are seeking an experienced I&S Security Assurance Manager to lead and strengthen security assurance activities across a complex technology and information environment. The role will provide independent oversight of security controls, policies, processes and risk management practices, helping to ensure that information, systems and services remain secure, resilient and compliant with applicable standards and regulatory obligations.
Key responsibilities will include developing and maintaining a security assurance framework; planning and coordinating assurance reviews, audits and control assessments; and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational security measures. You will identify control weaknesses, assess associated risks and agree practical remediation plans with stakeholders, tracking actions through to completion. The role will also support security accreditation, risk acceptance and compliance reporting, while preparing clear reports and recommendations for senior management. You will work closely with cyber security, technology, risk, governance, procurement and operational teams, as well as external suppliers and assurance partners. Additional duties may include supporting incident reviews, assessing third-party security arrangements and contributing to the continuous improvement of security policies, standards and procedures.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in information or cyber security assurance, governance, risk or compliance, with a strong understanding of security control frameworks and recognised standards such as ISO 27001, NIST or CIS. You should be confident interpreting technical and business information, challenging constructively and communicating risk clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Experience conducting audits, control testing, supplier assurance or security assessments is highly desirable. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor or equivalent experience, would be advantageous. You will be organised, analytical and pragmatic, with the ability to manage competing priorities, build effective relationships and influence positive security outcomes across a broad stakeholder group.
