This is a key permanent hire, responsible for shaping and delivering a security strategy that strengthens resilience across a complex environment spanning IT, OT, cloud, manufacturing sites, and global operations. The position requires a leader who can balance strategic governance with hands-on technical delivery to drive meaningful change.

Role Overview

The successful candidate will take ownership of the end-to-end security function, working closely with senior technology and operational teams to:

  • Modernise and uplift legacy systems and security tooling
  • Strengthen global governance aligned to ISO 27001, NIST, CIS and industry best practice
  • Improve visibility, monitoring, and incident response capability
  • Lead enhancements across multi-cloud environments (Azure/AWS/GCP)
  • Drive OT/ICS security improvement across manufacturing environments
  • Establish and refine security operating models, policies, and KPIs
  • Provide clear, actionable reporting to senior leadership and the board
  • Build, mentor and develop a high-performing security and governance team

What We're Looking For

We are seeking a security leader with experience gained in manufacturing, engineering, industrial, or multi-site global environments. Key attributes include:

  • Experience as a Head of Security, CISO or senior Security Operations leader
  • Strong technical grounding across SOC, SIEM, cloud, identity and endpoint protection
  • Demonstrable success improving resilience in complex or legacy estates
  • Proven delivery of OT/ICS security or IT/OT convergence initiatives
  • Confident working with senior stakeholders across operations, engineering and technology
  • Ability to set direction while remaining hands-on where needed

Why This Role?

This is a rare opportunity to join an organisation investing heavily in technology and operational growth. You will have the autonomy to shape the security function, influence global strategy, and build a modern security posture that supports the business for years to come.
