IT Security Analyst

Hybrid (UK)

Do you want to play a key role in securing customer trust and supplier integrity at a market-leading construction software company? At Causeway, we’re looking for a highly organised, detail-driven Information Security Analyst to support our customer assurance processes and lead our third-party risk management efforts.

Who Are We? We are ranked as the UK’s #1 construction-specific software player, and our mission is simple: to provide market-leading end-to-end software solutions to the construction and construction-related industries across the entire build lifecycle. If you are looking to build an exceptional career with an award-winning company, you’ve come to the right place.

Our teams are based in the UK, Europe, USA and India, working on products that are used on a global scale. We have a clear and defined roadmap to deliver over the next three years, which is centred around a large-scale digital transformation as well as continuing our growth and expansion.

We embrace diversity and equality and want our employees to feel comfortable bringing their whole selves to work. We are committed to building a team with a variety of backgrounds, skills, and views. Creating a culture of equality isn’t just the right thing to do, it improves every aspect of our business.

Purpose As Information Security Analyst, you will be a strategic contributor supporting business development and security operations. You'll manage customer-facing security questionnaires, ensuring timely and accurate responses, and drive the Third-Party Due Diligence (TPDD) programme to evaluate and monitor supplier security posture. Your work will help reduce risk exposure, maintain compliance, and uphold Causeway’s reputation as a trusted technology provider.

• Maintain the security assurance matrix to reflect the latest controls aligned with ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, and SOC2.
• Act as a key point of contact for information security assurance queries from customers and internal teams.

Third-Party Due Diligence

• Conduct initial and recurring vendor risk assessments using frameworks like ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, and CIS Controls.
• Score vendors, document gaps, and recommend remediation actions.
• Manage the TPDD playbook including onboarding, periodic review, and offboarding.
• Integrate tooling for evidence collection and continuous monitoring.
• Align vendor controls with SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR/UK GDPR, and upcoming regulations.

Metrics & Audit Support

• Track and publish key metrics including turnaround times, risk severity, and SLA adherence.
• Provide audit artefacts and metrics for internal/external audits.
• Support access reviews across internal systems and Causeway domains.

Security Team Collaboration

• Contribute to broader security initiatives and continuous improvement within the team and organisation.

Skills, Experience, and Qualifications

Essential

• 3+ years in information security, GRC, or vendor risk management.
• Experience issuing or responding to security questionnaires and DDQs.
• Solid knowledge of ISO 27001 Annex A, SOC 2, and GDPR/CCPA.
• Strong communication skills, capable of translating technical risks for varied audiences.
• Right to work in the UK/EU and ability to pass background checks.

Desirable

• Certifications: CRISC, CISSP, CISA, ISO 27001 Lead Auditor.
• Familiarity with SaaS/cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP).
• Understanding of secure software supply chains (SBOM, SLSA).
