Lead Cyber Security Risk Manager
We are seeking an experienced Lead Cyber Security Risk Manager to provide strategic leadership across cyber security risk management, governance and assurance. You will be responsible for identifying, assessing and treating information and cyber security risks across a complex business environment, ensuring that risk decisions are clearly documented, proportionate and aligned with business objectives. Working with senior stakeholders, technology teams and control owners, you will promote a practical, risk-based approach to security and resilience.
Your responsibilities will include maintaining and enhancing cyber security risk management frameworks, policies, standards and methodologies; overseeing risk assessments for technology, projects, suppliers and business change; and managing risk registers, treatment plans, exceptions and risk acceptances. You will provide clear reporting on risk exposure, trends, control effectiveness and remediation progress to senior governance forums. The role will also involve supporting regulatory, audit and assurance activity, coordinating responses to findings, and ensuring that lessons learned from incidents, exercises and emerging threats are incorporated into risk management practices.
You will bring substantial experience in cyber security, information security, technology risk or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of recognised security and risk frameworks. You should be confident interpreting technical issues and translating them into clear business impacts and actionable recommendations for senior audiences. Experience leading risk professionals or cross-functional programmes, influencing stakeholders without direct authority, and managing competing priorities is essential. Strong communication, analytical and problem-solving skills are required, together with sound judgement, attention to detail and the ability to challenge constructively. Professional qualifications in cyber security, information security, risk management or audit are desirable, as is experience working in regulated or highly complex environments.
