We are seeking an experienced Group CISO to lead the organisation’s information and cyber security strategy across a complex, globally distributed environment. This is a senior leadership role with responsibility for establishing a resilient, risk-based security framework that protects critical data, systems, customers and colleagues while enabling business growth and transformation. You will act as a trusted adviser to executive leadership and the board, providing clear insight into the organisation’s cyber risk profile, threat landscape and security priorities.
The successful candidate will define and deliver a multi-year cyber security strategy, oversee governance, risk and compliance activities, and ensure that appropriate policies, standards and controls are implemented across the group. Responsibilities will include leading security architecture, identity and access management, data protection, security operations, vulnerability management, third-party risk, incident response, business continuity and cyber resilience. You will direct the organisation’s approach to threat monitoring and response, ensuring that significant incidents are managed effectively and that lessons learned are embedded. The role will also involve maintaining alignment with relevant regulatory obligations, industry standards and emerging technology risks.
You will lead and develop a high-performing security function, building strong relationships with technology, risk, legal, audit, compliance and operational teams. You will promote a positive security culture through effective communication, awareness and training, while ensuring that security is embedded into major programmes, products and change initiatives from the outset. Applicants should bring significant experience in senior information or cyber security leadership roles, ideally within a large, regulated or international environment. You will have a strong understanding of enterprise risk management, security governance and modern cyber threats, together with the credibility to influence at board level. Relevant professional qualifications and certifications are desirable, as is a track record of leading transformation, managing budgets and developing capable, collaborative teams.
