Lead Information Security & GRC Specialist
London (Hybrid, 3 days in office) | £80,000 - £100,000 + Benefits
We're partnering with a well-established organisation that's continuing to invest in its Technology and Information Security capability.
As the business continues to strengthen its security posture, they're looking for a hands-on Information Security & GRC Specialist to play a key role in developing and maturing their Information Security function.
This is an opportunity to join a collaborative technology team where you'll take ownership of Governance, Risk & Compliance activities, helping to build and continually improve the organisation's security maturity while working closely with stakeholders across Technology and the wider business.
The Opportunity
This is a hands-on role suited to someone who has successfully led, or played a significant role in, delivering an ISO 27001 certification programme.
You'll own and continually improve the Information Security Management System (ISMS), working closely with Technology, Infrastructure, Engineering and business stakeholders to embed security into projects, operational processes and supplier relationships.
You'll be responsible for identifying security gaps, driving remediation activities, coordinating internal and external audits, managing governance processes and ensuring the business continues to meet evolving regulatory and compliance requirements.
