IM&T Security Officer
We are seeking an experienced IM&T Security Officer to support the protection of information, systems, networks and digital services across a complex operational environment. The postholder will help maintain a strong security culture, ensure effective risk management and contribute to the continual improvement of information and communications technology security arrangements. This is an opportunity to work across technical and non-technical teams, providing practical advice and helping services operate securely, efficiently and in line with relevant policies and legislation.
Key responsibilities will include monitoring and assessing information security risks; supporting the implementation and review of security policies, procedures and controls; coordinating vulnerability management, security assessments and remediation activity; and contributing to incident detection, investigation, reporting and lessons learned. You will assist with access control reviews, audit preparation, business continuity and disaster recovery planning, supplier assurance, security awareness training and the secure introduction of new technologies and services. The role will also involve maintaining accurate records, preparing reports for governance forums and advising colleagues on data protection, secure working practices and the management of sensitive information.
Applicants should have demonstrable experience in information, cyber or IT security, together with a sound understanding of security frameworks, risk assessment, incident management and relevant data protection requirements. Knowledge of recognised standards and good practice, such as ISO 27001, NIST or the Cyber Essentials principles, would be beneficial. You will need strong analytical, organisational and communication skills, with the confidence to explain technical issues clearly to a range of audiences and to challenge constructively when required. The successful candidate will be proactive, discreet and methodical, able to manage competing priorities, work collaboratively and exercise sound judgement when handling confidential information. Relevant professional qualifications or practical experience in a comparable security role are desirable.
