SECURITY ARCHITECT L1(CONTRACT)
We are seeking a Security Architect L1 (Contract) to support the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of secure technology solutions across a complex IT environment. This role is suited to a security professional with a strong understanding of enterprise architecture, information security principles, and risk management. You will work closely with infrastructure, cloud, application, and governance teams to ensure that security is embedded throughout the solution lifecycle.
Key responsibilities include reviewing proposed architectures and technical designs, identifying security risks, and recommending appropriate controls and mitigations. You will contribute to security architecture standards, patterns, and reference models, while supporting threat modelling, vulnerability assessments, and risk evaluations. The role will also involve assessing cloud and on-premises solutions, reviewing identity and access management arrangements, advising on network segmentation and data protection, and ensuring alignment with relevant security policies, regulatory requirements, and industry frameworks. You may also assist with security exceptions, audit activities, and the development of clear technical documentation for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Applicants should have practical experience in security architecture, cyber security engineering, or a closely related discipline, together with a sound understanding of infrastructure, applications, networks, cloud platforms, and modern security controls. Familiarity with frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST, or CIS is desirable, as are certifications such as SABSA, CISSP, CCSP, or equivalent. Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder-management skills are essential, along with the ability to explain complex security matters clearly and provide pragmatic, risk-based recommendations. This contract opportunity requires a proactive, collaborative professional who can manage competing priorities, work independently, and deliver high-quality outcomes within agreed timelines.
