Information Security Lead Auditor
We are seeking an experienced Information Security Lead Auditor to plan, lead and deliver independent security audits across a complex technology and business environment. This role will assess the effectiveness of information security controls, governance frameworks, risk management practices and regulatory compliance arrangements. You will work closely with stakeholders across technology, operations, risk and compliance to identify control weaknesses, evaluate their impact and support the development of practical remediation plans.
Responsibilities will include developing risk-based audit plans; defining audit scope, objectives and testing strategies; conducting interviews, walkthroughs and evidence reviews; and assessing controls against recognised standards and regulations such as ISO 27001, NIST, COBIT, PCI DSS and applicable privacy requirements. You will lead audit engagements from planning through to reporting, document clear and well-supported findings, agree actions with control owners and monitor remediation through to completion. The role will also involve presenting results to senior management, contributing to assurance reporting and advising on emerging information security risks, technology changes and regulatory developments.
Applicants should have substantial experience in information security auditing, IT assurance, risk management or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of security governance, identity and access management, vulnerability management, incident response, cloud security, data protection and third-party risk. A relevant professional certification such as CISA, CISSP, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor or an equivalent qualification is highly desirable. You will need excellent analytical, written and verbal communication skills, sound professional judgement and the confidence to challenge constructively at all levels. The successful candidate will be organised, objective and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple priorities, work independently and build effective relationships in a collaborative environment.
