Senior Security Engineering Manager
We are seeking a Senior Security Engineering Manager to lead the development and delivery of robust security engineering capabilities across a complex technology environment. This is a senior leadership role for an experienced security professional who can combine strategic thinking with practical technical expertise, while building high-performing teams and influencing stakeholders at all levels.
You will define and execute the security engineering roadmap, ensuring that security is embedded throughout the design, development and operation of products, platforms and services. You will lead initiatives covering cloud security, application security, infrastructure protection, identity and access management, vulnerability management, security tooling and automated security controls.
Key responsibilities will include managing, mentoring and developing security engineers; setting clear objectives and creating a culture of ownership and continuous improvement; establishing engineering standards, processes and metrics; and overseeing the delivery of secure, scalable and reliable solutions. You will work closely with software engineering, infrastructure, architecture, risk, compliance and incident response teams to identify threats, reduce risk and support effective remediation.
You will also contribute to security architecture and design reviews, promote secure-by-design principles, and help shape policies and technical strategies. Where required, you will provide technical direction during security incidents, support investigations and ensure lessons learned are translated into lasting improvements.
The successful candidate will have significant experience in security engineering, including substantial experience leading or managing technical teams. You will have strong knowledge of modern cloud environments, enterprise infrastructure, application security, threat modelling and security automation. Experience developing security programmes, managing complex projects and working in regulated or highly controlled environments would be advantageous.
You should be an accomplished communicator who can explain complex technical risks clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. A collaborative leadership style, sound judgement, commercial awareness and the ability to prioritise effectively are essential. Relevant professional certifications or equivalent practical experience are welcomed.
