Security Advisor
We are seeking an experienced Security Advisor to provide trusted advice and practical support across a broad range of security matters. In this role, you will help identify, assess and manage risks affecting people, information, premises, technology and business operations. You will work closely with stakeholders at all levels to promote a strong security culture, ensure appropriate controls are in place and support the consistent application of policies, standards and procedures.
Your responsibilities will include conducting security risk assessments, reviewing existing controls and recommending proportionate improvements. You will contribute to the development and maintenance of security policies, plans, guidance and assurance activities, while monitoring compliance with relevant legal, regulatory and industry requirements. You will support the management of security incidents, investigations and corrective actions, including preparing clear reports, maintaining accurate records and escalating significant risks when required. The role may also involve advising on physical security, personnel security, information protection, business continuity, security awareness and third-party risk. You will assist with audits, exercises, training sessions and security projects, ensuring actions are tracked through to completion.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in a security, risk, resilience, compliance or related advisory position, with the ability to translate complex issues into clear, practical recommendations. You should have strong analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills, sound judgement and a proactive approach to problem-solving. Experience developing risk assessments, policies or assurance reports will be highly valued, as will familiarity with recognised security or risk-management frameworks. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications are desirable, although equivalent practical experience will be considered. You must be organised, discreet and comfortable handling sensitive information, with the ability to work independently while contributing effectively to a collaborative team. A commitment to continuous improvement and professional integrity is essential.
