  • Promoting secure-by-design practices, collaborating with security architects, engineering, DevOps, and testing teams.
  • Interfacing with stakeholders to secure necessary approvals and accreditation.
  • Maintaining assurance registers and contributing to programme-wide risk management and reporting.

We are seeking candidates with a strong understanding of endpoint and device assurance, ideally with experience in macOS and MDM platforms such as Jamf, Intune, or Workspace ONE, and with:

  • Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CCSP, or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor
  • Experience leading security assurance in central government or similar high-assurance environments
  • Deep understanding of security assurance frameworks, including NCSC Cloud Security principles, GDS Service Standards, and government accreditation processes
  • Hands-on experience producing RMADS, SyOps, DPIAs, and related artifacts
