Cyber Security Architect
We are seeking an experienced Cyber Security Architect to design, develop and maintain secure technology architectures across a complex, evolving environment. You will provide strategic security guidance across infrastructure, applications, cloud services, networks and data platforms, ensuring that security is embedded throughout the technology lifecycle. Working closely with technology, risk, compliance and delivery teams, you will translate business and technical requirements into practical, resilient security solutions.
Key responsibilities will include defining security architecture principles, standards, patterns and reference models; reviewing proposed designs and identifying risks, vulnerabilities and control gaps; and recommending appropriate mitigations. You will contribute to security reviews, threat modelling, risk assessments and architecture governance, while supporting the selection and implementation of security technologies. The role will involve advising on identity and access management, encryption, network security, endpoint protection, secure software development, cloud security and data protection. You will also help establish security roadmaps, maintain architectural documentation and promote consistent application of security controls across programmes and operational services.
Applicants should have significant experience in cyber security architecture, engineering or a closely related discipline, together with a strong understanding of enterprise security frameworks, principles and industry good practice. Experience designing secure solutions in cloud and hybrid environments, along with knowledge of common security technologies, threat landscapes and regulatory requirements, is highly desirable. Professional certifications such as CISSP, SABSA, CCSP or equivalent would be advantageous. You will be an effective communicator who can explain complex risks clearly, influence senior stakeholders and collaborate with technical and non-technical colleagues. A pragmatic, analytical approach, strong problem-solving skills and the ability to manage competing priorities are essential.
