As a Security Architect your innovative solutions and support will secure business systems, protecting what is most valuable to our clients.
You’ll collaborate across enterprise architectures to produce end-to-end security designs, assisting on bids and proposals, as well as implementations and integrations. Liaising with stakeholders at all levels, you’ll help build the full landscape security view that underpins systems resilience and client confidence. We need senior members who are design authorities, and junior members to work alongside them, developing their skills and understanding.
