We are seeking a Senior Manager, Cyber Architect to provide strategic security architecture leadership within a complex financial services environment. This role will shape and govern secure, resilient technology solutions across business applications, infrastructure, cloud platforms, data, and emerging technologies. You will work closely with senior stakeholders, technology leaders, risk specialists, and delivery teams to ensure security is embedded throughout the design, development, and implementation lifecycle.
Key responsibilities will include defining and maintaining enterprise and domain security architecture principles, standards, reference models, and roadmaps; assessing proposed technology solutions and identifying cyber risks, control gaps, and appropriate remediation actions; and providing authoritative guidance on cloud security, identity and access management, network security, application security, data protection, and secure engineering practices. You will lead architecture reviews, support major transformation and change programmes, contribute to threat modelling and risk assessments, and help ensure alignment with regulatory obligations, internal policies, and recognised security frameworks. The role will also involve mentoring architects and security professionals, influencing senior decision-makers, and promoting a consistent security-by-design culture.
To succeed, you will bring significant experience in cyber security architecture, technology risk, or a related discipline, ideally gained within financial services or another highly regulated environment. You should have a strong understanding of enterprise architecture, modern cloud technologies, cyber threat landscapes, security controls, and regulatory expectations. Experience developing architecture strategies, governing complex programmes, and communicating technical risk to both technical and non-technical audiences is essential. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, SABSA, TOGAF, or cloud security qualifications would be advantageous. We are looking for a confident, collaborative leader who can balance security, customer needs, operational resilience, and commercial priorities while delivering practical, sustainable outcomes.
