Security Risk Analyst (FTC)
We are seeking a Security Risk Analyst for a fixed-term contract to support the identification, assessment and management of information and technology security risks. You will work with stakeholders across the organisation to understand business processes, assess control effectiveness and provide practical recommendations that strengthen the overall security posture. This role is suited to an analytical professional who can interpret complex information, communicate clearly and contribute confidently in a collaborative environment.
Key responsibilities will include conducting security risk assessments, documenting findings and maintaining accurate risk registers; reviewing security controls, policies and procedures against relevant standards and regulatory requirements; supporting third-party and supplier risk assessments; monitoring remediation plans and escalating overdue or high-impact risks; and preparing concise reports, dashboards and management information. You will also contribute to security governance activities, support audit and assurance requests, investigate emerging risks and help improve risk assessment methodologies, processes and documentation. The role may involve working with vulnerability management, incident response, business continuity, data protection and compliance teams.
Applicants should have experience in information security, technology risk, cyber risk, audit, compliance or a related discipline, together with a sound understanding of common security frameworks and principles. Experience assessing controls and risks in a regulated or complex environment would be advantageous. Strong analytical, written and verbal communication skills are essential, as is the ability to manage priorities, challenge constructively and build effective relationships with both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Relevant qualifications such as CISA, CRISC, CISSP, ISO 27001, or equivalent practical experience are desirable. You must be organised, detail-focused and comfortable working independently while meeting fixed-term project and reporting deadlines.
