We are seeking an experienced Vice President, Cyber Security Project & Transition Manager to lead the delivery and transition of complex cyber security initiatives across a global, highly regulated environment. This is a senior leadership position requiring strong programme management expertise, commercial awareness and the ability to work effectively with technology, risk, compliance and business stakeholders.

You will be responsible for establishing and overseeing a portfolio of cyber security projects, ensuring that programmes are delivered to agreed scope, budget, timescales and quality standards. Duties will include defining delivery strategies, developing governance frameworks, managing dependencies and risks, and providing clear, concise reporting to senior leadership and steering committees.

The role will also lead the transition of new and enhanced security capabilities into operational service. This will involve coordinating implementation planning, readiness assessments, testing, knowledge transfer, documentation, service acceptance and post-implementation reviews. You will ensure that solutions are embedded effectively, operational teams are suitably prepared and benefits are measured and realised.

A strong understanding of cyber security principles, operational resilience, risk management and service transition is essential, alongside proven experience managing senior stakeholders and third-party providers. Excellent communication, influencing and decision-making skills are required, as is the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

A recognised project or programme management qualification, such as PRINCE2, MSP or PMP, would be advantageous. Experience within financial services or another regulated sector, together with familiarity with Agile and hybrid delivery methodologies, would also be beneficial.
