Security and Resilience Specialist
We are seeking a Security and Resilience Specialist to support the protection, continuity and recovery of critical services, information and operational capabilities. This role will help strengthen security and resilience across the organisation by identifying emerging risks, improving preparedness and coordinating effective responses to disruptive events. You will work with colleagues across business functions, technology, facilities, suppliers and external partners to promote a consistent and practical approach to risk management.
Key responsibilities include maintaining and enhancing security and resilience policies, standards, procedures and guidance; conducting risk assessments, business impact analyses and resilience reviews; and supporting the development, testing and maintenance of business continuity, crisis management and disaster recovery plans. You will coordinate exercises, simulations and lessons-learned activities, monitor resulting actions and provide clear reports on preparedness, incidents, risks and compliance. The role will also contribute to incident response, security investigations and post-incident reviews, helping ensure that corrective actions are identified and implemented. You will support assurance activity, audits and supplier assessments, while keeping informed of relevant threats, regulations, industry practices and emerging risks.
The successful candidate will have experience in security, business continuity, operational resilience, risk management, crisis management or a related discipline. You should be able to assess complex information, identify proportionate controls and communicate recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Experience of recognised resilience or security frameworks, incident management, exercise planning and stakeholder engagement is desirable. Strong organisational skills, sound judgement and the ability to remain calm and focused during incidents are essential. Professional certifications in business continuity, information security, risk, emergency management or a related field would be advantageous. This is an opportunity to make a tangible contribution to the protection and continued delivery of essential services in a collaborative, evolving environment.
