We are seeking an experienced Chief Information Security Officer Director to lead the development and execution of an organisation-wide information security strategy. This senior leadership role will be responsible for protecting critical systems, data, infrastructure and services while ensuring security supports business objectives and operational resilience. You will provide clear direction to security teams, advise executive leadership on cyber risk, and promote a strong culture of security, accountability and continuous improvement across the organisation.
Key responsibilities include establishing and maintaining security policies, standards, procedures and governance frameworks; overseeing threat management, vulnerability management, security monitoring, identity and access management, data protection and incident response; and directing the investigation and resolution of security breaches. You will lead enterprise risk assessments, define appropriate controls, track remediation activity and ensure effective business continuity and disaster recovery arrangements. The role will also manage regulatory, audit and compliance requirements, maintain relationships with external security partners and authorities, and provide accurate reporting on risk exposure, security performance and emerging threats.
Applicants should have substantial experience in information security leadership, cyber risk management and the design of security programmes within complex environments. A strong understanding of recognised security frameworks, privacy obligations, regulatory expectations and modern cloud, network and application security is essential. Professional qualifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC or equivalent are desirable. You will be an influential communicator with the ability to engage technical and non-technical stakeholders, challenge constructively and translate complex risks into practical decisions. Strategic thinking, sound judgement, strong leadership skills and the ability to prioritise effectively during high-pressure incidents are essential. Experience building high-performing teams, managing budgets and delivering security transformation initiatives will be highly valued.
