Reference: h68a8qjreo19pmy5xdeo

We are seeking an experienced Senior Information Security Officer to lead and strengthen information security practices across a complex organisation. This is an influential role for a security professional who can combine strategic thinking with practical delivery, helping to protect information assets, technology services and business operations against evolving threats.

You will develop, maintain and continuously improve information security policies, standards and procedures, ensuring they reflect current legislation, recognised frameworks and organisational risk appetite. Working closely with technology, risk, compliance and business teams, you will identify security risks, assess their potential impact and agree proportionate mitigation plans. You will also provide clear, evidence-based advice to senior stakeholders and support informed decision-making on security matters.

Key responsibilities will include overseeing risk assessments, security assurance activities, third-party reviews and compliance monitoring. You will contribute to incident response planning and investigations, helping to ensure that security incidents are managed effectively and lessons are captured. The role will also involve supporting vulnerability management, access control reviews, security awareness initiatives and the development of meaningful management information and reporting.

You will have substantial experience in information security, cyber risk, governance, risk and compliance, or a closely related discipline. A strong understanding of security frameworks such as ISO 27001, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework or CIS Controls is essential, together with knowledge of UK data protection and relevant regulatory requirements. Experience of working with risk registers, audit processes, supplier assurance and security incident management is highly desirable.

We are looking for an articulate and collaborative professional who can build trusted relationships at all levels, communicate complex issues clearly and influence positive change. You should be analytical, organised and comfortable managing competing priorities, while maintaining a pragmatic and commercially aware approach. Relevant professional certification, such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC or ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or Auditor, would be advantageous.
