Enterprise Security Architect
We are seeking an experienced Enterprise Security Architect to define and advance security architecture across a complex, technology-driven environment. You will develop secure, scalable architecture principles and reference models that support business objectives, regulatory obligations, and evolving threat landscapes. Working closely with technology, engineering, infrastructure, data, risk, and business teams, you will translate strategic requirements into practical security solutions across cloud, on-premises, applications, networks, identity, and end-user environments.
Your responsibilities will include leading security architecture reviews, assessing risks and design decisions, and providing clear recommendations to delivery and governance forums. You will establish and maintain security standards, patterns, roadmaps, and controls, while helping embed secure-by-design practices throughout the technology lifecycle. The role will also involve evaluating emerging technologies, supporting transformation programmes, contributing to threat modelling and risk assessments, and ensuring that architectural decisions align with relevant policies, regulatory requirements, and industry frameworks. You will act as a trusted adviser, communicating complex security matters clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Applicants should have substantial experience in enterprise security architecture, solution architecture, or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of modern security principles and control frameworks. Experience designing and assessing solutions across cloud platforms, network security, identity and access management, application security, data protection, and third-party services is essential. Familiarity with frameworks such as SABSA, TOGAF, NIST, ISO 27001, or CIS is desirable, as are relevant professional certifications. You will bring excellent analytical, influencing, and communication skills, the ability to balance security with usability and delivery needs, and a proactive approach to identifying and managing risk. A degree or equivalent professional experience in information security, computer science, technology, or a related field is preferred.
