Vice President, IT Security Risk and Control
We are seeking a senior technology and risk leader to serve as Vice President, IT Security Risk and Control. This role will provide strategic direction for the organisation’s information security risk and control framework, helping to protect critical systems, data, and services while enabling responsible business growth. The successful candidate will lead the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of security governance, risk management, and control assurance programmes across a complex technology environment.
Key responsibilities include establishing security risk appetite, policies, standards, and operating procedures; overseeing technology risk assessments, control testing, issue remediation, and regulatory reporting; and providing clear, insightful reporting to executive leadership and relevant governance committees. You will partner closely with technology, cyber security, internal audit, compliance, legal, privacy, and business stakeholders to identify emerging threats, strengthen control effectiveness, and embed secure practices into transformation and change initiatives. The role will also lead responses to internal and external reviews, track remediation commitments, and promote consistent risk ownership across the organisation.
Applicants should bring substantial experience in information security risk, technology controls, cyber governance, or a closely related discipline, gained within a large, regulated, or highly complex environment. A strong understanding of security frameworks and standards such as NIST, ISO 27001, COBIT, or equivalent is required, together with experience interpreting regulatory expectations and translating them into practical control requirements. Professional qualifications such as CISM, CISSP, CRISC, CISA, or relevant risk certifications are desirable. We are looking for an influential communicator with excellent judgement, strong stakeholder management skills, and the ability to explain complex technical and risk matters clearly to both specialist and senior executive audiences.
