Reference: 1x5voqt4qss1rv9rot2l

We are seeking an experienced Senior Security Risk Officer to lead the identification, assessment and management of security risks across a complex operational environment. The successful candidate will provide expert advice to senior stakeholders, helping to strengthen security governance, resilience and compliance while supporting informed, risk-based decision-making. This role will involve working with teams across the business to ensure that security risks are understood, appropriately controlled and regularly reviewed.

Key responsibilities will include maintaining security risk registers, conducting formal risk assessments and developing practical treatment plans. You will monitor emerging threats, vulnerabilities and changes in the regulatory landscape, assessing their potential impact on people, information, assets and business operations. The role will also support the development and review of security policies, standards and procedures; coordinate assurance activities, audits and compliance reviews; and track remediation actions through to completion. You will prepare clear reports and briefings for governance forums and senior leadership, highlighting key exposures, trends, control effectiveness and recommended improvements. In addition, you may contribute to incident reviews, business continuity planning, third-party risk assessments and security awareness initiatives.

Applicants should have substantial experience in security risk management, information security, enterprise risk, resilience or a closely related discipline. A strong understanding of risk frameworks, control assessment methodologies, governance principles and relevant legislation or regulatory requirements is essential. Professional qualifications in security, risk, audit, information assurance or a related field would be advantageous. You will need excellent analytical and report-writing skills, sound judgement and the ability to communicate complex issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. The ideal candidate will be collaborative, organised and confident in challenging existing practices constructively, with a proven ability to manage competing priorities and deliver high-quality outcomes in a changing environment.
