We are seeking an experienced Technical CISO Lead to provide senior technical leadership across cyber security, information assurance and technology risk. This is a high-impact role for a security professional who can translate business objectives into practical, resilient and measurable security outcomes.
You will define and maintain the technical security strategy, architecture and roadmap, ensuring that security controls support organisational priorities while meeting relevant regulatory, contractual and industry requirements. Working closely with technology, risk, compliance and operational teams, you will provide authoritative advice on security design, cloud adoption, infrastructure, applications, data protection and emerging threats.
Your responsibilities will include leading the development of security architecture principles and standards; overseeing threat modelling, vulnerability management and security testing; strengthening identity and access management; and supporting effective detection, response and recovery capabilities. You will also contribute to incident management, crisis exercises and post-incident reviews, ensuring that lessons learned are translated into sustained improvements.
The role will involve assessing technical and third-party risks, challenging proposed solutions where appropriate, and presenting clear recommendations to senior stakeholders. You will establish meaningful security metrics and reporting, promote secure-by-design practices, and help build a culture in which security is understood as a shared responsibility.
Applicants should have substantial experience in a senior cyber security, security architecture or technical leadership position, with a strong understanding of enterprise infrastructure, cloud technologies, application security, networks and information protection. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are desirable, alongside knowledge of recognised security frameworks and data protection requirements.
You will be a confident communicator and credible adviser, able to influence at board and technical levels. Strong analytical, problem-solving and decision-making skills are essential, as is the ability to prioritise effectively in a complex and changing environment. Experience leading security transformation, managing suppliers and developing high-performing teams would be advantageous.
