We are seeking a Strategic Cyber Advisory Director to lead the development and delivery of high-impact cybersecurity advisory services for complex organisations. This senior role will help clients understand their cyber risk, strengthen resilience, and align security investments with business priorities. You will provide trusted guidance to executive stakeholders, boards, and senior technology leaders, translating evolving threats, regulatory expectations, and technical challenges into practical, commercially focused strategies.

You will shape advisory engagements from initial discovery through to delivery, defining objectives, methodologies, deliverables, and measurable outcomes. Responsibilities will include leading cyber maturity assessments, risk and control reviews, security strategy development, operating model design, transformation roadmaps, regulatory readiness programmes, and incident preparedness initiatives. You will oversee multidisciplinary teams, manage senior client relationships, review the quality of deliverables, and ensure recommendations are realistic, prioritised, and capable of being implemented.

Excellent communication and influencing skills are essential, along with the ability to engage confidently with both technical and non-technical audiences. A strategic mindset, sound commercial judgement, structured problem-solving approach, and demonstrable experience leading high-performing teams are required. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or equivalent qualifications would be advantageous.
