Security Assurance Analyst
We are seeking a Security Assurance Analyst to support the development, maintenance and continuous improvement of effective information security assurance practices. Working across technology, risk and business teams, you will help assess whether security controls are appropriately designed, implemented and operating effectively. This is an opportunity to contribute to a collaborative environment where clear communication, sound judgement and attention to detail are highly valued.
Your responsibilities will include coordinating security assurance reviews, control assessments and evidence-gathering activities; analysing findings and identifying areas of risk; and preparing clear reports, dashboards and recommendations for stakeholders. You will support the tracking and remediation of control gaps, risks and audit actions, ensuring issues are documented, prioritised and followed through to completion. The role will also involve assisting with internal and external audits, maintaining security policies and procedures, reviewing supplier and third-party assurance information, and helping to monitor compliance with relevant legislation, standards and regulatory expectations. You may also contribute to security awareness initiatives, risk assessments and the continuous improvement of governance processes.
The successful candidate will have experience in information security, IT risk, assurance, audit, compliance or a related discipline, together with a practical understanding of security controls and recognised frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST or COBIT. Experience interpreting audit evidence, documenting risks and presenting findings to varied audiences is desirable. Strong analytical, organisational and written communication skills are essential, along with the ability to manage competing priorities and work constructively with both technical and non-technical colleagues. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications, such as CISA, CRISC, CISSP, ISO 27001 or equivalent experience, would be advantageous. A commitment to confidentiality, professional integrity and ongoing learning is expected.
