Key responsibilities will include establishing and maintaining enterprise security policies, standards, and controls; overseeing physical, information, cyber, personnel, and operational security programmes; and leading the identification, assessment, and treatment of security risks. You will direct incident preparedness and response, coordinate investigations, and ensure effective business continuity, crisis management, and disaster recovery arrangements.

Excellent communication, influencing, analytical, and strategic planning skills are essential, as is the ability to translate complex risks into clear recommendations for executive and non-technical audiences. A pragmatic, ethical, and collaborative approach will be central to success in this role.
