Job description

**Head of Cyber Protection**

The MoJ Information Security Team sits at the heart of the Ministry of Justice. We enable good security practices through the provision of security policies, guidance and education, understand information security risks from all parts of the organisation and provide assurance to senior leaders that these risks are being effectively managed in the delivery of MoJ’s objectives.

As the Head of Cyber Protection, you will lead the delivery of the MoJ's cyber security strategy and will be responsible for providing specialist security support to those areas of the department which do not have dedicated information security / cyber security teams.

You will be responsible for running and developing a small team consisting of civil servants and contractors who work on these strategically and security-vital projects. You will performance manage senior security specialists, and commercial security providers. Your work will include being responsible for tactical and strategic issues for your team - making challenging priority calls, and communicating these to stakeholders, helping the team explain complex security risks to others, and setting out a growth and development strategy for the team, to ensure we have the right skills for the future technology challenges the department faces. You will also have delegated budget authority for your area of work.

Your role will also be about relationships - working with our wider team to identify areas where we should be proactive in our security work, and helping build links with areas, such as our Justice Digital area, that can help us address risks before they become issues. You will be adept at working with commercial suppliers - often in relationships where security is not the primary driver.

The MoJ’s cyber security strategy states our vision - that every critical Justice service is resilient to cyber-attack. We aim to achieve this by embedding ‘secure by design’ thinking into everything the department does, with ten pillars of strategic activity to support this. Your work in this area will be with stakeholders, technology teams, policy areas, and senior leaders to ensure appropriate plans are delivering our strategy.

Your team are responsible for providing specialist security support to those areas of the department that do not have dedicated information security teams. This will include both direct support of business areas and public bodies with hands-on security support where necessary, as well as helping areas identify their needs for such support and source appropriate effort through relevant frameworks and suppliers, and supervising their work as required.

You will be part of the MoJ Information Security Team's senior leadership team and will be an important part of the Security and Information Group's leadership community.

All members of the team are expected to help develop the MoJ Security Function as a centre of expertise for the department and to contribute to building a brilliant and diverse team that is a welcoming place for all.

**MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES**
- Be a member of the MoJ’s security leadership team, setting the direction for the area as a whole and representing the entire area (beyond your local team) at corporate events, deputising for the CISO as required.
- Leading a small team of information and cyber security specialists, prioritising work, and developing and implementing a team strategy - helping to focus our resources where they will bring the biggest benefit in improving the department’s cyber security. Development and implementation of a people strategy for your team, covering team size, skills, recruitment and training. Develop and implement a plan for improving employee engagement and making the team a great place to work based on data from people surveys.
- Engage effectively with business areas to embed cyber security into their processes - where they do not have dedicated security effort available. This would incl
