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.
