Senior Cyber Security Architect
We are seeking a Senior Cyber Security Architect to define and strengthen secure technology strategies across a complex, evolving environment. In this role, you will develop security architecture principles, standards and reference designs that support business objectives while protecting critical systems, data and services. You will work closely with engineering, infrastructure, cloud, software development, risk and compliance teams to ensure security is embedded throughout the technology lifecycle, from initial design and procurement through implementation and ongoing operation.
Your responsibilities will include assessing existing and proposed architectures, identifying security risks and control gaps, and recommending practical, proportionate improvements. You will provide technical leadership on cloud, identity and access management, network security, application security, data protection and threat modelling. The role will also involve contributing to security policies, design reviews, risk assessments and technical roadmaps, as well as supporting incident response, audit activity and remediation planning when required. You will communicate complex security concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders and help promote secure-by-design practices across delivery teams.
The successful candidate will have significant experience in cyber security architecture, enterprise security or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of modern infrastructure, cloud platforms, secure software development and security frameworks. Experience translating business and regulatory requirements into effective technical controls is essential, along with the ability to influence decisions in a collaborative, matrixed environment. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, SABSA, TOGAF or cloud security qualifications are desirable. You should be analytical, pragmatic and confident working independently, with excellent communication skills and a commitment to continuous improvement in a fast-changing threat landscape.
