Security Architecture & Assurance
We are seeking a Security Architecture & Assurance professional to provide strategic direction and practical guidance across the design, delivery and operation of secure technology services. The role will define and maintain security architecture principles, patterns, standards and reference designs, ensuring that security requirements are embedded throughout the technology and project lifecycle. You will work closely with technology, product, risk, compliance and delivery teams to translate business objectives into proportionate, effective security controls.
Key responsibilities include reviewing solution and system architectures, identifying security risks and recommending appropriate mitigations; contributing to threat modelling, security assessments and design reviews; and supporting the development of roadmaps that improve resilience, privacy and regulatory alignment. You will establish assurance activities and evidence requirements, monitor adherence to security policies and architectural standards, and provide clear reporting on control effectiveness, exceptions, risks and remediation plans. The role will also involve advising on cloud, infrastructure, application, identity and data security, as well as contributing to incident preparedness, vulnerability management and continuous improvement. You may be required to support governance forums and communicate complex security matters to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in security architecture, information security, technology assurance or a related discipline, with a strong understanding of secure design principles, risk management and control frameworks. Experience across cloud and on-premises environments, enterprise architecture, application security, identity and access management, and data protection would be highly valued. Relevant professional certifications such as CISSP, SABSA, CISM, CCSP or equivalent are desirable. You will be analytical, pragmatic and confident in challenging decisions constructively, with the ability to balance security, usability, cost and delivery needs. Strong written and verbal communication skills, effective stakeholder management and a commitment to continual learning are essential.
