• Oversee patching, upgrades, and configuration management across key systems
• Support internal and external audits with high‑quality evidence and reporting
• Influence cyber governance, security standards, and operational procedures
• Act as the bridge between security, operations, delivery teams and stakeholders

What You Bring

• Certifications such as Security+, CISSP or similar
• Strong hands‑on information security experience: incident response, log review, root‑cause analysis
• Experience managing security infrastructure and operational security processes
• Confidence communicating risk to both technical and non‑technical audiences
• A background supporting audits and compliance initiatives (ISO, CE+, external audits)

Why This Role Stands Out

You’ll be joining a people‑first environment that values inclusivity, innovation, and continuous improvement. Expect global exposure, strategic influence, agile working, and the opportunity to be a key contributor in a high‑impact, firm‑wide transformation.

If you’re ready to step into a role where security leadership truly matters, this is your next move.
