Chief Information Security Officer
We are seeking an experienced Chief Information Security Officer to lead the development and execution of an enterprise-wide information security strategy. This senior leadership role will be responsible for protecting data, systems, applications, and technology infrastructure while enabling secure business growth. You will provide strategic direction on cybersecurity, risk management, privacy, resilience, and regulatory compliance, acting as a trusted adviser to executive leadership and key stakeholders.
Key responsibilities include establishing and maintaining a comprehensive security governance framework; identifying, assessing, and mitigating cyber and information risks; and overseeing policies, standards, controls, and assurance programmes. You will lead security monitoring, incident response, threat intelligence, vulnerability management, identity and access management, security architecture, and business continuity planning. The role will also coordinate responses to significant security incidents, ensure effective lessons-learned processes, and manage relationships with regulators, auditors, technology partners, and other external stakeholders. You will develop meaningful security metrics and reports for senior leadership, support investment decisions, and promote security-by-design across projects, products, and operational change.
The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in senior information security or cybersecurity leadership, ideally within a complex, regulated, or internationally operating environment. You will have a strong understanding of recognised security frameworks and standards, risk management methodologies, data protection requirements, and current cyber threats. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or equivalent are desirable. Excellent communication, influencing, and stakeholder management skills are essential, along with the ability to translate complex technical risks into clear business priorities. We are looking for a pragmatic, ethical, and inclusive leader who can build high-performing teams, strengthen organisational resilience, and embed a culture of accountability and continuous security improvement.
