Information and Cyber Risk Assurance Advisor
We are seeking an Information and Cyber Risk Assurance Advisor to support the effective identification, assessment and management of information security and cyber risks across a complex organisation. In this role, you will provide independent, constructive assurance over technology, information and cyber risk management activities, helping teams understand their exposure and strengthen their control environment. You will work closely with risk owners, technology specialists, internal assurance teams and senior stakeholders to promote consistent, proportionate and risk-based practices.
Your responsibilities will include planning and delivering risk-based assurance reviews, assessing the design and operating effectiveness of security controls, and documenting findings, risks and recommendations in clear, accessible reports. You will monitor remediation activity, challenge target dates where appropriate and provide regular updates on risk treatment and residual exposure. You will also contribute to risk assessments, control testing, governance reporting, policy and standards reviews, third-party assurance, and the development of practical improvements aligned with recognised information security and cyber security frameworks.
The successful candidate will have experience in information security, cyber risk, technology risk, internal audit, compliance or a related assurance discipline. You should be confident interpreting technical and business information, analysing evidence, identifying control weaknesses and communicating their implications to both technical and non-technical audiences. Knowledge of governance, risk and compliance principles, security frameworks such as ISO 27001 or NIST, and relevant regulatory expectations would be advantageous. Strong report-writing, stakeholder management and influencing skills are essential, along with sound judgement, attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities. Professional qualifications in information security, risk, audit or a related field are desirable, but equivalent practical experience will also be considered.
