As a critical member of our team, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping and evolving our cybersecurity practices, transitioning from high-impact operational tasks to strategic oversight.

Key Highlights:

  • Location: Mayfair, London (5 days onsite). Salary expectations are significantly higher than the industry average.

About the Role:

  • Hands-On Security & Automation: Manage alerts, perform upgrades, execute efficient patch management, and automate operational tasks as needed.

  • Leadership in Cybersecurity Strategy: Lead monthly Cybersecurity Working Group meetings, collaborating with senior executives across compliance, legal, and IT. Establish efficient patching protocols, engage in risk management, and support the adoption of best practices.
