Enterprise Security Architect
We are seeking an Enterprise Security Architect to define and advance a secure, resilient technology strategy across a complex organisation. In this role, you will develop security architecture principles, standards and roadmaps that align with business objectives, regulatory obligations and emerging threats. You will work closely with technology, engineering, risk, compliance and business stakeholders to ensure security is embedded throughout the design, delivery and operation of products, platforms and services.
Your responsibilities will include assessing current and future architectures, identifying security risks and recommending practical improvements across cloud, infrastructure, applications, data, networks and identity services. You will establish and maintain security patterns, reference architectures and design assurance processes, while providing guidance on threat modelling, zero-trust principles, encryption, privileged access, resilience and secure software development. You will review major programmes and solution designs, support risk treatment decisions, and help ensure that security controls are proportionate, measurable and consistently implemented. The role will also involve monitoring the changing threat landscape, contributing to incident preparedness, and communicating complex technical risks clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
The successful candidate will have significant experience in enterprise security architecture, cyber security engineering or a related discipline, with a strong understanding of modern cloud environments, identity and access management, network security, application security and data protection. Experience working with recognised security frameworks and standards, such as ISO 27001, NIST or SABSA, is desirable, as are relevant professional certifications. You will be an effective influencer with excellent analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills, capable of balancing security, usability, cost and delivery priorities. A pragmatic, collaborative approach and a commitment to continuous improvement are essential.
