Principal Security Architect

Reference: netwodlcki7otdh73muv

We are seeking an experienced Principal Security Architect to provide strategic leadership across the design, implementation and continuous improvement of enterprise security capabilities. You will define security architecture principles, standards and roadmaps that support business objectives while protecting systems, applications, data and infrastructure. Working closely with technology, engineering, risk and operational teams, you will ensure security is embedded throughout the solution lifecycle, from early concept and design through to deployment and ongoing service improvement.

Your responsibilities will include developing target-state architectures, reviewing complex solutions, identifying risks and recommending proportionate controls. You will establish and maintain architecture patterns covering areas such as cloud security, identity and access management, network protection, application security, data security, resilience and emerging technologies. You will provide constructive challenge at design and governance forums, support threat modelling and security assessments, and contribute to incident readiness, regulatory compliance and the management of security exceptions. You will also help shape security strategy, mentor architects and engineers, and promote secure-by-design practices across the organisation.

You will bring substantial experience in security architecture within complex, regulated or highly interconnected environments, together with a strong understanding of modern cloud and hybrid infrastructure. Practical knowledge of security frameworks, threat modelling methodologies, secure development principles, identity services, cryptography, network architecture and risk management is essential. Relevant professional certifications, such as CISSP, SABSA, CISM, CCSP or equivalent experience, would be advantageous. You should be able to communicate complex technical risks clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, influence senior decision-makers and balance robust protection with practical delivery. A collaborative, analytical and pragmatic approach, along with the ability to work confidently in an evolving environment, is key to success.
