Senior Technical Security Architect

Reference: qjvjgconjn9anpznvysx

We are seeking a Senior Technical Security Architect to define and strengthen secure technology architectures across a complex, evolving environment. In this influential role, you will translate business and technology requirements into practical security solutions, ensuring that systems, platforms, applications, networks and cloud services are designed and operated in line with recognised security principles. You will work closely with engineering, infrastructure, software development, operations, risk and compliance teams, providing clear guidance throughout the technology lifecycle.

Your responsibilities will include developing and maintaining security architecture standards, patterns and reference designs; reviewing proposed solutions and identifying security risks, control gaps and opportunities for improvement; and advising on identity and access management, network security, cloud security, encryption, data protection, application security and secure integration. You will contribute to threat modelling, risk assessments, architectural reviews and security roadmaps, while helping teams embed secure-by-design practices. The role will also involve supporting incident investigations, resilience planning, vulnerability management and the continuous improvement of security controls. You will communicate complex technical matters clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders and may provide leadership and mentoring to security architects and engineering teams.

To succeed, you will have substantial experience in technical security architecture, enterprise architecture or a closely related discipline, with a strong understanding of modern infrastructure, cloud platforms, networks, operating systems, applications and security technologies. Experience designing solutions within regulated or high-risk environments is highly desirable. You should be confident assessing competing risks, making pragmatic recommendations and influencing decisions at senior level. Familiarity with security frameworks and standards such as ISO 27001, NIST, CIS Controls, SABSA or equivalent would be advantageous, as would relevant professional certifications. Excellent analytical, communication and stakeholder-management skills are essential, together with a collaborative approach and the ability to balance robust security with usability, delivery needs and business value.
