• Coordinate onboarding and offboarding of internal and third-party testers in line with enterprise processes.
• Ensure all pre-requisites (access, environments, test accounts, approvals, prerequisites) are in place for tests to start on time.
• Provide occasional onsite supervision when third-party testers or activities require physical oversight.
• Ensure security testing findings progress through the full lifecycle: triage, remediation assignment, retesting, and closure.
• Track remediation progress with stakeholders and ensure SLAs and internal policies are met.
• Maintain accurate documentation and reporting throughout the lifecycle.
• Maintain clear documentation of processes, decisions, and test artefacts.
• Support improvements to security testing processes, workflows, and governance.
