Maintain local standards, procedures, control registers and evidence aligned with company policy and applicable customer and regulatory requirements.
• Risk assessment and security design: Conduct site, route, project and supplier security risk assessments. Recommend proportionate controls covering premises, access, cargo, conveyance, personnel, information, emergency response and business continuity.
