Security Engineering Manager, SDO AppSec EMEA
We are seeking a Security Engineering Manager to lead application security engineering across the EMEA region. This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for building and developing a high-performing team, strengthening secure software development practices and helping engineering teams deliver resilient, secure products at scale. You will work closely with engineering, product, infrastructure, risk and compliance stakeholders to embed security throughout the software development lifecycle.
Your responsibilities will include setting the regional application security strategy, managing priorities and delivery plans, and overseeing programmes covering secure design, threat modelling, code review, vulnerability management, security testing and remediation. You will establish effective standards, guidance and metrics, while improving the adoption of security tooling and automated controls within development pipelines. The role will also involve reviewing architecture and designs, supporting incident response where application security is implicated, communicating risk to senior stakeholders and ensuring that security findings are addressed in a timely and proportionate manner. You will coach engineers and security specialists, support recruitment and performance development, and promote a culture of shared ownership for security.
The successful candidate will have substantial experience in application security, product security or software engineering, together with proven experience managing and mentoring technical teams. You should have a strong understanding of secure software development methodologies, modern application architectures, cloud environments, APIs, identity and access management, and common web and software vulnerabilities. Experience with security testing tools, DevSecOps practices, continuous integration and delivery, and vulnerability management programmes is essential. Strong communication, stakeholder management and prioritisation skills are required, as is the ability to explain complex technical risks clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Relevant industry certifications or demonstrable equivalent expertise would be advantageous. The role is suited to an inclusive, pragmatic leader who can balance strategic direction with practical delivery in a geographically distributed environment.
