Project Security Manager
We are seeking an experienced Project Security Manager to lead the security strategy and delivery of complex projects from initiation through to completion. The successful candidate will ensure that security requirements are embedded throughout the project lifecycle, supporting the protection of people, information, systems, facilities and operational activities. You will work closely with project managers, technical specialists, suppliers and senior stakeholders to identify risks, define appropriate controls and ensure that security considerations are aligned with business objectives and regulatory obligations.
Your responsibilities will include developing project security plans, conducting threat and risk assessments, maintaining risk and issue registers, and monitoring the implementation of agreed mitigation measures. You will provide security advice across physical, personnel, information and cyber security domains, review project designs and documentation, and support assurance activities, audits and governance forums. You will also coordinate security-related testing, inspections and readiness reviews, manage exceptions, and contribute to incident response, lessons learned and continuous improvement. Where external partners are involved, you will help establish security requirements, assess supplier capability and monitor contractual compliance.
Applicants should have demonstrable experience managing security within large, complex or highly regulated projects, together with a sound understanding of risk management, security governance and assurance frameworks. Experience of working across multiple security disciplines and engaging effectively with senior stakeholders is essential. A relevant professional qualification or certification in security, risk, project management or a related field would be advantageous. You will need strong analytical, communication and organisational skills, with the confidence to challenge decisions constructively and translate technical or regulatory requirements into practical actions. The role may require security screening and occasional travel to project or operational sites.
