OT Security Advisory & Transformation Director
An opportunity is available for an experienced OT Security Advisory & Transformation Director to lead the development and delivery of operational technology security strategy across complex, highly regulated environments. This senior role will provide strategic direction, trusted advice and visible leadership, helping organisations strengthen resilience while enabling safe, sustainable transformation.
You will define and implement OT security roadmaps aligned with business objectives, regulatory obligations and recognised industry frameworks. Responsibilities will include assessing current capabilities, identifying risks and improvement priorities, establishing governance models, and overseeing transformation programmes from initial design through to delivery. You will work closely with executive stakeholders, technology and engineering teams, risk and compliance functions, suppliers, and operational leaders to ensure security is embedded throughout the asset lifecycle.
The role will involve shaping security operating models, policies, standards and assurance processes for industrial control systems, supervisory control and data acquisition environments, connected assets and other critical infrastructure. You will advise on architecture, segmentation, identity and access management, vulnerability management, incident preparedness, third-party risk and secure-by-design principles. You will also support investment cases, measure programme outcomes and promote a culture of continuous improvement across distributed operational environments.
The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in OT, industrial cyber security, critical infrastructure or a closely related field, together with a strong record of leading enterprise-wide advisory or transformation initiatives. You will be confident engaging at board and executive level, translating complex technical risks into clear business decisions and influencing stakeholders across multiple disciplines. Experience with standards such as IEC 62443, NIST, ISO 27001 or the NIS Regulations would be advantageous, as would relevant professional qualifications in cyber security, risk, engineering or programme leadership.
Strategic, commercially aware and collaborative, you will combine sound judgement with the ability to deliver practical outcomes in complex, changing environments. This is an opportunity to shape long-term security capability and make a measurable contribution to the resilience of essential operations.
