Principal Cybersecurity Architect

Reference: lt5noc6r2f80v7krzobp

We are seeking a Principal Cybersecurity Architect to provide strategic leadership in the design, development and continuous improvement of enterprise security architecture. In this senior role, you will define security principles, standards and reference architectures that support business objectives while protecting critical systems, data and services. You will work across technology, engineering, infrastructure, product and risk teams to embed security by design throughout the organisation’s technology landscape.

Key responsibilities will include assessing current and future architectures, identifying security risks and recommending practical, proportionate controls. You will lead the development of secure solutions across cloud, on-premises and hybrid environments, covering identity and access management, network security, application security, data protection, endpoint security and emerging technologies. You will establish architecture governance, review major technology proposals, contribute to threat modelling and risk assessments, and support the development of security strategies, roadmaps and investment priorities. The role will also involve advising senior stakeholders, influencing technical decisions and communicating complex security matters clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.

Applicants should have substantial experience in cybersecurity architecture, enterprise security or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of security frameworks, industry standards, threat landscapes and regulatory requirements. Experience designing secure cloud platforms, distributed systems and large-scale technology environments is highly desirable. You should be confident balancing security, usability, cost and delivery considerations, with a proven ability to influence without direct authority and build effective relationships across diverse teams. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, SABSA, TOGAF or comparable qualifications would be advantageous. Strong analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills are essential, as is a proactive approach to solving complex security challenges and mentoring other security professionals.
