Information Security Assurance Manager
We are seeking an Information Security Assurance Manager to lead the delivery of robust security assurance activities across a complex organisation. This is an influential role for an experienced information security professional who can provide clear advice, challenge constructively and help embed effective security practices across technology, projects and business operations.
You will develop and maintain the information security assurance framework, ensuring that policies, standards and controls remain aligned with recognised industry practices, regulatory obligations and organisational risk appetite. You will plan and deliver assurance reviews, control assessments and audits, identifying weaknesses and agreeing practical remediation plans with relevant stakeholders.
Key responsibilities will include managing the security risk and assurance portfolio, monitoring the progress of corrective actions, and producing accurate reports for senior management and governance forums. You will support compliance activities, contribute to internal and external audits, and provide assurance over third-party suppliers, cloud services and significant technology or business change initiatives.
You will work closely with cyber security, technology, risk, compliance, procurement and operational teams to promote a consistent approach to security assurance. The role will also involve developing meaningful metrics, improving assurance processes, maintaining supporting documentation and providing guidance on control design, evidence requirements and risk treatment.
Applicants should have substantial experience in information security assurance, governance, risk or audit, with a strong understanding of security frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST or CIS Controls. Experience of assessing technical and organisational controls, managing audit activity and working with third-party risk is essential. Relevant professional qualifications, such as CISM, CISSP, CRISC, CISA or an equivalent, would be advantageous.
You will be an excellent communicator with strong analytical and organisational skills, able to translate complex security matters into clear business advice. A pragmatic, collaborative approach, sound judgement and the confidence to influence stakeholders at all levels are essential. This is an opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to security maturity while supporting responsible delivery and continuous improvement.
