ABOUT THE ROLE
As Fractional ISO Lead at Trust Keith, you will help us build a practical ISO 27001 certification-readiness offer that helps customers strengthen security, governance and trust without drowning in unnecessary complexity.
This is not a traditional ISO consultancy role. We want to help customers bring data protection, information security and governance together through one joined-up framework that is practical, proportionate and built for real businesses.
You will work closely with our Lead DPO and wider team to shape the offer from the ground up. That means building the methodology, templates and delivery model, supporting early sales and discovery, and helping us bring the first pilot engagements to life.
You will help create an ISO 27001 implementation approach designed for startups, scale-ups and growth-stage organisations. This will include reusable templates, assessment tools, evidence guidance, delivery playbooks and a clear pathway for helping customers move from âwhere do we even start?â to certification-ready.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet â that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right â and where to focus when applying.
This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who has deep ISO 27001 experience, loves making complex things feel simple, and wants to help build a differentiated service that customers will actually enjoy using.
