Chief Information Security Officer
We are seeking an experienced Chief Information Security Officer to lead the development and execution of a comprehensive information security strategy across the organisation. This senior leadership role will establish the security vision, strengthen resilience, protect critical information assets, and ensure that security remains aligned with business objectives, regulatory obligations, and emerging threats. The successful candidate will act as a trusted adviser to executive leadership and key stakeholders, promoting a culture of security, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Key responsibilities will include defining and maintaining the information security strategy, governance framework, policies, standards, and risk management processes. You will oversee cyber security operations, threat intelligence, vulnerability management, identity and access management, security architecture, data protection, and incident response. The role will lead the preparation, testing, and continuous improvement of business continuity and disaster recovery arrangements, while ensuring effective investigation and management of security incidents. You will also manage relationships with internal teams, technology partners, auditors, regulators, and other external stakeholders, and provide clear reporting on security risks, performance, and compliance to senior leadership and relevant governance committees.
The ideal candidate will bring significant leadership experience in information security, cyber risk, technology risk, or a closely related discipline, gained in a complex and highly regulated environment. A strong understanding of recognised security frameworks, privacy requirements, regulatory expectations, cloud security, and modern threat landscapes is essential. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or equivalent are desirable. You will be an influential communicator with the ability to translate complex technical risks into clear business implications, make sound decisions under pressure, and build effective relationships at all levels. Strategic thinking, integrity, commercial awareness, and a practical, collaborative approach are equally important.
