About the Role
 
This is a brilliant opportunity for an experienced Cyber Security Risk professional to take ownership of a global organisation’s risk management and compliance strategy. You’ll be joining a forward-thinking cyber team that’s investing heavily in maturing its Governance, Risk, and Compliance capability, giving you the chance to shape frameworks, influence senior leaders, and make a real impact on how the business manages risk.
 
You’ll lead key initiatives around risk governance, audit readiness, and compliance, ensuring the business continues to meet and exceed industry standards. Working closely with teams across IT, Architecture, Procurement, and Business Operations, you’ll bring a balanced view that protects the organisation without holding innovation back.
 
This is a high-visibility role with plenty of scope to drive improvement, introduce best practices, and guide the business through upcoming certifications and audits.
 
About You
 
You’ll bring a mix of technical understanding, commercial awareness, and the confidence to engage at every level. Ideally, you’ll have:
 
  • Strong experience in cybersecurity risk management or GRC roles
  • A solid understanding of industry frameworks such as NIST CSF, NIST 800-53, or SOC 2
  • Hands-on involvement in audit or certification readiness programmes
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate security risk into business value
 
This role is perfect for someone who enjoys being at the intersection of security, strategy, and stakeholder engagement, with the freedom to influence and improve how cyber risk is managed across a global business.
