We are seeking an experienced Lead Cybersecurity GRC Consultant to provide strategic guidance across governance, risk and compliance initiatives. In this role, you will help strengthen the organisation’s security posture by developing and maintaining cybersecurity policies, standards, procedures and control frameworks aligned with recognised industry practices and regulatory requirements. You will work closely with technology, risk, legal, audit and business stakeholders to translate security objectives into practical, measurable and sustainable outcomes.
Your responsibilities will include leading cybersecurity risk assessments, control evaluations, compliance reviews and third-party risk assessments; identifying gaps; and recommending prioritised remediation plans. You will coordinate evidence collection and responses for internal and external audits, track control effectiveness and provide clear reporting to senior leadership. The role will also involve supporting regulatory and customer assurance activities, maintaining risk registers, advising on security requirements for projects and suppliers, and contributing to the continuous improvement of governance processes. You will mentor consultants and colleagues, promote a strong culture of accountability, and lead workshops to improve awareness of cybersecurity risk and control ownership.
To be successful, you will have substantial experience in cybersecurity governance, risk and compliance, with a strong understanding of frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST CSF, COBIT or similar. Experience with regulatory obligations, privacy principles, security control testing, audit management and third-party risk is highly desirable. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or Lead Auditor are advantageous. You will bring excellent analytical, communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to present complex information clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A proactive, collaborative approach, strong attention to detail and the confidence to influence at all levels are essential.
