Key responsibilities will include developing and maintaining the information security roadmap; overseeing security policies, standards, procedures and controls; and managing risk, compliance and assurance activities. You will lead the organisation’s approach to security monitoring, incident response, vulnerability management, identity and access management, data protection and business continuity. The role will also involve coordinating audits and regulatory reviews, reporting security performance and risk exposure to senior leadership, and ensuring that identified issues are addressed promptly. You will build strong relationships with technology, legal, privacy, procurement and operational teams, while managing external security partners and providing expert guidance on major projects, architecture decisions and third-party risk.

You will have a proven record of establishing mature security programmes, leading incident response and influencing stakeholders at executive and board level. Relevant professional qualifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC or equivalent experience are desirable. Excellent communication, commercial awareness and strategic thinking are essential, together with the ability to translate complex security issues into clear, practical recommendations. This is an opportunity to shape a resilient, risk-aware culture and lead a high-performing security function through continued organisational growth and change.
