• Drive cyber due diligence across key service providers, advising contract managers so suppliers operate to agreed levels of security
• Support operational resilience activity wherever technology risk, information security, supplier oversight or ICT controls are involved
• Identify and escalation risk across your area of responsibility

What you will need

• A strong understanding of technology and infrastructure risk: information security, cloud, third party and resilience
• Working knowledge of regulatory and audit expectations, including FCA, ISO27001, outsourcing and operational resilience, and how to evidence compliance
• A clear grasp of the three lines of defence model, operating comfortably across first line delivery and second line oversight
• Demonstrable experience in technology risk, information security, ICT governance, audit or assurance within demanding, complex business environments
• A track record of assessing technology controls and tracking remediation through to closure
• Familiarity with internal and external audit, producing the evidence that supports assurance activity
• Practice producing risk reporting, management information or committee level documentation
• An analytical, methodical eye for control design and control gaps
