Cyber Security Risk Manager
We are seeking an experienced Cyber Security Risk Manager to lead the identification, assessment, and management of cyber security risks across a complex and evolving environment. The successful candidate will work with technology, information security, compliance, internal audit, and business teams to strengthen risk governance and support informed decision-making. This role will help ensure that security risks are understood, appropriately prioritised, and managed in line with organisational objectives and regulatory expectations.
Key responsibilities include maintaining and enhancing cyber security risk management frameworks, policies, standards, and procedures; coordinating regular risk assessments across systems, services, suppliers, and business processes; and developing clear reporting for senior stakeholders and relevant governance forums. You will monitor risk treatment plans, track remediation activity, challenge control effectiveness, and support the management of security exceptions. The role will also contribute to third-party risk assessments, security incident reviews, audit responses, business continuity planning, and the evaluation of emerging threats. You will provide practical advice on risk mitigation and help embed security-by-design principles into projects, change initiatives, and operational processes.
Applicants should have proven experience in cyber security, technology risk, information assurance, or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of risk management principles, security controls, and relevant regulatory or industry requirements. Experience working with recognised frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST, COBIT, or CIS is desirable. Strong analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills are essential, as is the ability to translate technical issues into clear business impacts and recommendations. Professional qualifications such as CISM, CISSP, CRISC, or equivalent experience would be advantageous. The successful candidate will be proactive, detail-oriented, commercially aware, and confident operating across multiple teams while managing competing priorities.
