Description du poste

We are looking for an Interim CISO to lead the next phase of our security maturity. This is a player-coach role for someone who can operate at executive level while also rolling up their sleeves and working directly with technical and business teams.

The Role

You will own the company's security strategy, risk and governance, while partnering closely with Engineering, Product, IT, Legal and the executive team.

You will act as a trusted security advisor to the CTO and leadership team, while remaining close enough to the detail to help drive execution.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and execute a pragmatic security strategy and roadmap.
• Advise the executive team and Board on cyber risk, priorities and investment.
• Strengthen security governance, policies, risk management and compliance.
• Partner with Engineering and Product on application, cloud, infrastructure and data security.
• Improve vulnerability management, threat modelling and security practices across the SDLC.
• Own and test the incident response and cyber resilience framework.
• Support customer security reviews, due diligence and strategic customer engagements.
• Help ensure the company's security posture meets the expectations of customers operating in OT environments.
• Assess the current security organisation and help build the right team, processes and external partnerships.
• Personally drive key initiatives where needed — this is not a role for someone who only delegates.

What We're Looking For

• Senior security leadership experience as a CISO, Deputy CISO, Head of Security or equivalent.
• Strong SaaS, cloud and application security experience.
• Experience building or maturing security programmes in a growing organisation.
• Strong understanding of security risk, governance, compliance and incident response.
• Excellent executive communication skills and the ability to translate technical risk into business terms.
• Comfortable working directly with engineers and getting into technical detail when required.
• Experience with OT, industrial, manufacturing, energy or critical infrastructure environments is a strong plus.
• Pragmatic, hands-on and comfortable operating in an environment where not everything is fully built out.
