Lead Cybersecurity GRC Consultant
We are seeking a Lead Cybersecurity GRC Consultant to provide strategic guidance across governance, risk and compliance initiatives. This role will lead the development, implementation and continuous improvement of cybersecurity frameworks, policies, standards and controls aligned with recognised industry practices and applicable regulatory requirements. You will work closely with technology, privacy, legal, risk and business stakeholders to strengthen security governance and support informed risk-based decision-making.
Key responsibilities include managing enterprise security risk assessments, maintaining risk registers and treatment plans, coordinating internal and external audits, and overseeing compliance activities against frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST, SOC 2 or equivalent standards. You will advise on control design and effectiveness, prepare clear reports for senior leadership, track remediation actions and provide practical recommendations to address control gaps. The role will also involve supporting third-party risk management, reviewing supplier security assessments, contributing to incident and issue management, and helping embed security requirements into projects and business processes.
The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in cybersecurity governance, risk and compliance, with a strong understanding of security frameworks, audit methodologies, regulatory obligations and control environments. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or Lead Auditor are desirable. You should be confident engaging stakeholders at all levels, translating technical and regulatory requirements into clear business actions, and leading complex initiatives from planning through to delivery. Strong analytical, communication, report-writing and influencing skills are essential, together with the ability to work independently, prioritise competing demands and promote a mature, collaborative security culture.
