Reference: up1j0o67dnemg3uehfb6

We are seeking a Security Assurance Specialist to support the delivery, maintenance and continuous improvement of robust information security controls across a complex technology and business environment. The successful candidate will help ensure that security requirements are clearly defined, implemented effectively and evidenced through suitable assurance activities. This role will work closely with technology, risk, compliance, procurement and operational teams to promote secure practices and provide confidence that information, systems and services are appropriately protected.

Key responsibilities will include planning and conducting security reviews, control assessments and risk-based assurance activities; gathering and evaluating evidence; identifying control gaps; and tracking remediation actions through to completion. You will contribute to the development and maintenance of security policies, standards, procedures and assurance frameworks, while supporting audits, regulatory reviews and customer or supplier assessments. The role will also involve reviewing security aspects of projects, systems, third-party arrangements and operational processes, preparing clear reports for stakeholders, and providing practical recommendations that improve security maturity. You may also support the monitoring of security metrics, risk registers, exceptions and compliance obligations.

Applicants should have experience in information security, IT risk, governance, compliance, audit or a related assurance discipline, together with a good understanding of security frameworks, control principles and risk management practices. Familiarity with standards such as ISO 27001, NIST, CIS Controls or equivalent frameworks is desirable, as is experience working with cloud services, technology suppliers and assurance evidence. Strong analytical, documentation and communication skills are essential, including the ability to interpret technical information and explain its business impact to varied audiences. Professional certifications such as CISA, CRISC, CISSP, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor or equivalent would be advantageous. You should be organised, collaborative and comfortable challenging constructively while managing multiple priorities in a changing environment.
