Associate Director, OT & Cybersecurity
We are seeking an experienced Associate Director, OT & Cybersecurity to lead the development and delivery of strategies that protect operational technology, industrial control systems and connected infrastructure. This is a senior role for a cybersecurity professional who can combine technical expertise with business leadership, risk management and stakeholder engagement. You will help strengthen resilience across operational environments while enabling secure, reliable and compliant business operations.
Key responsibilities will include setting the OT cybersecurity roadmap; establishing governance, policies, standards and control frameworks; and overseeing the identification, assessment and treatment of cyber risks across industrial and critical environments. You will lead initiatives covering network security, asset visibility, vulnerability management, security monitoring, incident response, identity and access management, third-party risk and secure system design. The role will also involve directing security assessments, supporting audits and regulatory obligations, and ensuring that cybersecurity requirements are embedded throughout the lifecycle of OT systems, from design and procurement through to deployment and decommissioning.
You will work closely with engineering, operations, IT, enterprise security, risk, compliance and external partners, translating complex technical risks into clear priorities for senior leadership. The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in OT, ICS, SCADA or industrial cybersecurity, together with a strong understanding of recognised frameworks and standards such as IEC 62443, NIST, ISO 27001 and relevant regulatory requirements. Experience leading multidisciplinary teams, managing programmes and budgets, and responding to cyber incidents in operational environments is highly desirable. Excellent communication, influencing and decision-making skills are essential, as is the ability to balance security, safety, availability and operational performance. Relevant professional certifications in cybersecurity, risk or industrial control systems would be advantageous.
