  • Coordinate control testing activities and assurance reporting to internal stakeholders and executive governance bodies.
  • Oversee risk functions for technology and cyber operations.
  • Collaborate with internal IT teams to identify, track, and mitigate technology-related risks.
  • Conduct risk assessments and provide recommendations to improve security posture and regulatory compliance.

  • Knowledge of ISO 27001 with experience implementing and maintaining compliance.
  • Broader knowledge and practical experience with implementation of NIST, Essential 8, SOC 2, and other security frameworks.
  • Strong understanding of IT risks, security controls, and regulatory requirements.
