You will act as a trusted adviser to senior stakeholders, translating complex technical and regulatory issues into clear, practical recommendations that support informed decision-making.

Your responsibilities will include shaping cyber strategies, operating models and transformation roadmaps; advising on governance, risk and compliance; and providing executive-level guidance on threat management, resilience, identity, cloud security, data protection and secure digital transformation.
