UKI - Technology Risk - Director
We are seeking an experienced Technology Risk Director to lead and shape technology risk management across the UK and Ireland. This is a senior leadership role responsible for providing strategic direction, strengthening risk governance and ensuring that technology-related risks are identified, assessed and managed effectively. You will work closely with senior stakeholders across technology, information security, compliance, internal audit and business functions to support informed decision-making and resilient operations.
Your responsibilities will include developing and delivering a forward-looking technology risk strategy, maintaining robust risk and control frameworks, and overseeing the assessment of risks associated with infrastructure, applications, cloud services, third-party providers, cyber security, data and emerging technologies. You will challenge risk ownership, monitor remediation activity and provide clear reporting to executive committees and relevant governance forums. The role will also involve leading responses to regulatory change, technology incidents and control weaknesses, ensuring that lessons learned are embedded into the wider risk management approach.
You will bring significant experience in technology risk, information security, IT audit, operational resilience or a closely related discipline, gained within a complex and regulated environment. Strong knowledge of technology controls, risk frameworks, regulatory expectations and third-party risk management is essential, alongside the ability to translate technical issues into clear business implications. We are looking for a confident and credible leader who can influence at executive level, build effective relationships and develop high-performing teams. Excellent communication, analytical and stakeholder management skills are required, together with sound judgement, commercial awareness and the ability to balance robust challenge with practical solutions. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CISA, CISM, CRISC, CISSP or equivalent experience, would be advantageous.
