  • Familiarity with industry-recognized frameworks (e.g., CIS, ISO) and regulatory guidelines (e.g., GDPR).
  • Strong understanding of cloud computing and application of security controls in cloud architectures.
  • Familiarity with distributed event stores such as Apache Kafka.
  • Proficiency with operating systems (e.g., Linux) and command-line interfaces.
  • Experience with network security, incident management, and penetration testing.
  • Familiarity with automated cloud-based CI/CD pipelines and secure software design principles.


In addition to your technical prowess, we require strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset. You'll have the unique opportunity to shape and implement security measures from the ground up in a rapidly growing organisation. You'll have the opportunity to educate and coach both technology and business groups on cybersecurity best practices, fostering a culture of heightened awareness and responsibility across the organisation.


If you're passionate about cybersecurity, eager to make a tangible impact and thrive in a fast-paced, innovative environment, we'd love to hear from you.
