Cyber Governance Analyst
We are seeking a Cyber Governance Analyst to support the development, maintenance and continuous improvement of effective cybersecurity governance across the organisation. In this role, you will help ensure that security policies, standards, procedures and controls are clearly defined, consistently applied and aligned with business objectives, regulatory obligations and recognised industry frameworks. You will work with technology, risk, compliance and business stakeholders to promote a strong culture of cyber awareness and accountability.
Your responsibilities will include coordinating governance activities, maintaining security documentation and control registers, and supporting periodic reviews of policies, standards and risk assessments. You will assist with tracking remediation actions, monitoring control effectiveness and preparing clear reports for governance forums and senior stakeholders. The role will also involve supporting internal and external audits, gathering evidence, identifying control gaps and helping teams develop practical action plans to address weaknesses. You may contribute to the assessment of third-party security risks, the review of exceptions and risk acceptances, and the monitoring of compliance with relevant legal, regulatory and contractual requirements.
The successful candidate will have experience in cybersecurity governance, risk or compliance, with a sound understanding of information security principles, control frameworks and risk management practices. Familiarity with standards such as ISO 27001, NIST or CIS is desirable, as is experience working with audit, assurance or governance processes. You will be analytical, organised and confident in managing multiple priorities, with strong written and verbal communication skills. The ability to interpret technical information, translate it for varied audiences and build effective relationships across teams is essential. Relevant professional qualifications or training in information security, risk management or audit would be advantageous.
