Information Security Operations Manager

Cyber threats evolve by the minute. We need someone who moves faster.

As our Information Security Operations Manager, you'll be at the front line — leading a high-performing security operations capability that protects our organisation's people, assets, and reputation.

This is more than managing systems. It's about anticipating risks, neutralising threats before they surface, and building a culture where security is instinctive. You'll lead a skilled team of analysts, harness external intelligence, and coordinate rapid responses to incidents that matter.

Your mission:

  • Own the direction and performance of our Security Operations Centre (SOC)
  • Manage and optimise our relationship with the Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP)
  • Design and maintain a best-in-class Incident Response Framework
  • Lead high-stakes investigations and internal response efforts
  • Drive proactive threat intelligence gathering and mitigation strategies
  • Oversee penetration testing, red teaming, and security exercises to keep us prepared
  • Partner with leaders across the organisation to embed security into every decision

What you bring:

  • 7+ years in information security, with 5+ years leading incident response at enterprise scale
  • Proven experience running SOC operations and MSSP relationships
  • Expertise in ISO27001, NIST, and security best practice frameworks
  • The ability to turn complex security concepts into actionable strategies for senior leaders
  • A leader's mindset: decisive, strategic, and able to inspire confidence

Bonus points for:

  • CISSP, GIAC or equivalent certifications
  • Experience with Microsoft Enterprise Mobility and Security tools
  • Automation expertise with SIEM platforms such as Splunk, LogRhythm, or Exabeam

Why this role matters:

In this position, your decisions will shape how we prevent, detect, and respond to the most serious threats facing our organisation. You'll have the authority to influence strategy, the resources to act fast, and the mandate to make security a competitive advantage.

If you're ready to lead where it counts most, we're ready to meet you.
