Providing independent oversight of cyber resilience exercises and regulatory testing.
Building credibility across the business with the technical expertise to challenge and influence senior stakeholders.

Experience in Cyber Risk and/or Information Security Management or related functions.
Experience in governance and control frameworks.
Diversity of thought and experience to drive organisational progress while upholding our values.

Outcome-focused with the ability to drive oneself and others to achieve desired ends efficiently.
Beyond the expected perks that we're proud to offer like fitness passports, corporate health insurance, and paid parental leave, we go the extra mile to offer benefits that truly enhance your work-life balance, career growth, and sense of belonging. This role offers the chance to:
Play a critical role in shaping risk culture at an evolving and values-driven organisation.
