Enterprise Architect (Security)
We are seeking an experienced Enterprise Architect (Security) to define and guide the security architecture strategy across a complex, evolving technology environment. In this role, you will translate business objectives, regulatory obligations and emerging security risks into practical, scalable architecture principles and roadmaps. You will work closely with technology, product, engineering, infrastructure, risk and compliance teams to ensure that security is embedded throughout the design, delivery and operation of systems and services.
Key responsibilities include developing and maintaining enterprise security architecture frameworks, standards, patterns and reference models; assessing existing and proposed solutions to identify risks, control gaps and opportunities for improvement; and providing architectural direction for cloud, on-premises, identity, data, network, application and emerging technologies. You will contribute to security strategy and investment planning, support major transformation programmes, and ensure that architectural decisions align with recognised security practices and relevant legal, regulatory and industry requirements. The role will also involve producing clear documentation, presenting recommendations to senior stakeholders, and helping teams adopt secure-by-design principles.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in enterprise or security architecture, with a strong understanding of information security principles, threat modelling, risk management and security controls. Practical knowledge of cloud security, identity and access management, network security, application security, data protection and modern technology delivery models is essential. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent experience are desirable. You will be an effective communicator who can influence at all levels, explain complex technical issues clearly, and balance security, usability, cost and delivery priorities. A collaborative, analytical and pragmatic approach, together with the ability to operate confidently in a changing environment, will be key to success.
