This role will provide independent oversight and constructive challenge, helping to ensure that information assets, technology services and business processes are appropriately protected against evolving cyber and operational risks.
You will develop and manage a risk-based assurance programme covering governance, policies, controls, third-party arrangements, cloud services and key technology platforms. Responsibilities will include planning and delivering assurance reviews, assessing the design and effectiveness of security controls, coordinating remediation activity and providing clear reports to senior stakeholders and governance forums.

Relevant professional qualifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CISA, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor or equivalent would be advantageous. You will be analytical, organised and confident in communicating complex issues clearly, with the ability to influence at all levels and balance pragmatism with strong security principles. A proactive approach, sound judgement and a commitment to continuous improvement are key to success in this position.
