What You’ll Be Doing
- Provide specialist security support as part of a project team and Technology Solution Architects to embed security early in the project lifecycle, balancing cost, pace and quality.

- Conduct security risk assessments using industry-standard threat modelling techniques (STRIDE, DREAD, MITRE ATT&CK, etc.).
- Produce security designs for high-impact workstreams across the company, documenting security requirements derived from risk assessments and security patterns.
- Assess and communicate security risks and non-compliances against company policies and standards to programme stakeholders and service owners.
- Conduct security design governance activities, incorporating feedback to refine design artefacts as needed.
- Develop test plans and scopes for functional security and penetration testing, while supporting both internal/external resources (e.g., penetration test teams).
