The position is responsible for leading the Threat and Vulnerability Management function, including oversight of an outsourced offshore third-party service.

This function integrates secure practices into the development lifecycle and aligns with service transition processes to ensure compliance with internal controls and regulatory standards. It plays a critical role in governance, audit readiness, and the continuous improvement of MUFG’s security posture, while also serving as the central coordination point for all vulnerability-related activities across DES.

The successful candidate must demonstrate proven experience in leading teams and fostering a culture of technical excellence. They will be expected to establish best practices for risk identification and remediation planning, while also influencing stakeholders and delivering competitive advantage for global organisations by protecting against external threats and potential security vulnerabilities.
