  • Develop, maintain and enforce cyber security policies, standards and guidelines

  • Communicate cyber security risks, strategy and posture effectively to senior leaders and executives

  • Educate technical and non‑technical stakeholders through workshops, training and awareness initiatives

What You’ll Bring

  • Experience across cyber security, IT/OT security and ICT policy within complex environments

  • Strong expertise in cloud security, particularly Microsoft Azure, including architecture, IAM, network and data security

  • Proven experience assessing and approving secure solution designs for enterprise platforms and cloud‑hosted solutions

  • Working knowledge of cyber security frameworks and standards such as AESCSF and NIST
