Managed Cloud Security Lead
We are seeking an experienced Managed Cloud Security Lead to provide strategic and technical leadership across cloud security operations, governance and service delivery. In this role, you will lead the design, implementation and continual improvement of secure cloud environments, ensuring that security controls support business objectives while meeting regulatory, contractual and industry requirements. You will work closely with infrastructure, engineering, risk, compliance and service management teams to embed security throughout the cloud lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include owning cloud security standards, policies and operating procedures; overseeing managed security services and third-party suppliers; and maintaining effective processes for security monitoring, vulnerability management, identity and access management, configuration assurance and incident response. You will assess cloud architectures and proposed changes, identify risks, recommend practical mitigations and ensure that security findings are tracked through to resolution. The role will also involve developing service performance measures, reporting security posture to senior stakeholders, supporting audits and exercising oversight of cloud-related business continuity and disaster recovery arrangements.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience leading cloud security functions within complex, regulated or enterprise environments, with strong knowledge of platforms such as Azure, AWS or Google Cloud. You will understand cloud-native security tooling, zero-trust principles, network security, encryption, privileged access management, security information and event management, and secure configuration frameworks. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CCSP, CISM or relevant cloud-security credentials are desirable. Excellent communication, influencing and problem-solving skills are essential, together with the ability to translate technical risks into clear business impacts and priorities. You should be comfortable leading teams, managing suppliers, coordinating incident and remediation activity, and driving continuous improvement in a fast-changing technology landscape.
