Expert, Information Security

What you’ll do

• GRC strategy & roadmap: Define multi-year GRC roadmap aligned to business strategy, risk appetite, and regulatory expectations (e.g., DORA readiness, audit strategy, control maturity targets). Drive control framework evolution: rationalize controls, reduce duplication, and ensure proportionality based on criticality, data sensitivity, and business impact. Establish “north star” principles for governance (e.g., minimum control baselines, exception governance, evidence-by-design).
• Executive advisory & decision support: Advise leadership on material risk decisions: risk acceptance, remediation prioritisation, control investments, and scope decisions. Produce executive-grade outputs: risk narratives, board/committee materials, and regulator/customer responses with defensible rationale. Facilitate senior stakeholder alignment when priorities conflict (delivery speed vs control rigor; cost vs assurance depth).
• Regulatory, audit & assurance leadership (complex scope): Own strategy and approach for major audits/assurance activities (ISO 27001, SOC 2, regulatory examinations, key client due diligence), including scope, positioning, and negotiation. Lead responses to complex audit/regulatory issues: root-cause analysis, corrective action programs, and sustained effectiveness verification.
• Domain SME ownership (one or more, depending on needs): You may be the SME for one or more of: ISMS/ISO 27001 at scale (multi-entity scope, continuous compliance); DORA / operational resilience governance (control mapping, ICT risk integration, testing oversight); Third-party risk for critical ICT providers (oversight model, ongoing monitoring, exit/continuity governance); Security control assurance (testing program design, evidence standards, control health metrics).
• Enablement, standards & mentorship: Set standards and reusable artifacts: control narratives, evidence templates, testing methodologies, and playbooks. Mentor specialists and associates; raise organisation-wide capability through coaching and review. Partner with Security Engineering/IT/Compliance to embed controls into workflows (policy-to-automation where possible).
