Senior Principal Cybersecurity Architect
We are seeking a Senior Principal Cybersecurity Architect to define and advance enterprise security architecture across a complex, highly regulated technology environment. In this influential role, you will establish architectural direction, strengthen security capabilities, and ensure that business and technology strategies are supported by resilient, scalable, and risk-informed solutions. You will work closely with senior stakeholders, engineering teams, product leaders, and risk specialists to translate business objectives into practical security outcomes.
Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining security architecture principles, reference models, standards, and roadmaps covering cloud, infrastructure, applications, data, identity, networks, and emerging technologies. You will lead the architecture and design of secure solutions, review major technology initiatives, and provide expert guidance on threat modelling, zero-trust principles, identity-centric security, cryptography, secure software development, and security controls. You will identify systemic risks, recommend appropriate mitigations, and support investment decisions by communicating complex technical issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Applicants should bring extensive experience in cybersecurity architecture, enterprise architecture, or a closely related discipline, together with a strong record of influencing organisation-wide security strategy. You will be confident operating at executive level while remaining capable of engaging deeply with technical teams and delivery programmes. Experience across public cloud platforms, modern application architectures, infrastructure security, security operations, and regulatory frameworks is highly desirable. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, SABSA, CCSP, or equivalent are advantageous. The successful candidate will demonstrate sound judgement, exceptional communication skills, strategic thinking, and the ability to lead through influence in a fast-changing environment.
