We are seeking an experienced Head of Security Engineering to lead the strategy, delivery, and continuous improvement of a modern security engineering function. You will define and execute a pragmatic security roadmap aligned with business objectives, oversee the design of resilient technical controls, and ensure that security is embedded throughout the development and operational lifecycle. The role will involve close collaboration with technology, product, infrastructure, risk, and compliance teams, as well as regular engagement with senior stakeholders.

You will lead and develop a team of security engineers, setting clear objectives, supporting professional growth, and fostering a culture of ownership and continuous learning. Key responsibilities include establishing secure architecture principles, improving cloud and application security, strengthening identity and access management, advancing vulnerability and threat management capabilities, and supporting detection and response engineering. You will champion security automation, metrics, and repeatable processes, while ensuring that risks are identified, prioritised, and addressed effectively. You will also contribute to incident response, security reviews, technical assurance, and the evaluation of emerging technologies and suppliers.

The successful candidate will bring significant experience leading security engineering or cybersecurity teams in a complex technology environment. You should have strong knowledge of cloud security, secure software development, infrastructure protection, network security, identity platforms, and security operations. Experience designing security controls across hybrid or distributed environments, translating technical risk for non-technical audiences, and delivering strategic programmes is essential. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcome. We are looking for an inclusive and confident leader who combines technical depth with sound judgement, communicates clearly, and can balance robust security with usability and delivery speed.
