Senior Information Security Risk Analyst
We are seeking a Senior Information Security Risk Analyst to support the identification, assessment and management of technology and information security risks across a complex environment. This role will work closely with stakeholders across technology, compliance, audit and business functions to strengthen risk governance, improve resilience and promote effective security practices. The successful candidate will provide expert advice on risk matters and help ensure that security risks are understood, appropriately owned and managed within agreed tolerance levels.
Responsibilities will include conducting information security and technology risk assessments; evaluating controls against internal policies, regulatory expectations and recognised industry frameworks; maintaining risk registers, control documentation and management reporting; and supporting the development of risk treatment plans. You will analyse control weaknesses, emerging threats and business changes, providing clear recommendations and tracking remediation through to completion. The role will also contribute to security assurance activities, third-party and supplier risk assessments, audits, policy reviews, exception management and the preparation of concise reports for senior stakeholders and governance committees. You may also support risk and control awareness initiatives across the wider organisation.
Applicants should have substantial experience in information security, technology risk, IT audit, governance, risk and compliance, or a related discipline. A strong understanding of security frameworks and standards such as ISO 27001, NIST or COBIT is expected, together with experience assessing technical and organisational controls in a regulated or complex environment. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, CISA or equivalent, would be advantageous. You will need excellent analytical, communication and influencing skills, with the ability to translate technical issues into clear business risks and practical actions. Strong attention to detail, sound judgement, effective stakeholder management and the confidence to challenge constructively are essential.
