The role requires substantial experience leading IAM or cybersecurity functions in complex, highly regulated environments, along with a strong understanding of identity standards, access control frameworks, cloud platforms and emerging security practices. Experience delivering enterprise-scale change, communicating with executive audiences and balancing strong security with an excellent user experience is essential. Relevant professional qualifications in information security, technology or risk management are desirable. A strategic mindset, sound judgement, commercial awareness and the ability to turn complex challenges into clear, actionable outcomes will be key to success.
