Are you ready to take full ownership of an organisation’s information security and compliance -from audits to risk policies - while contributing to a product that makes a real impact?
We’re working with a growing software company near Reading that builds tools to help organisations monitor internal activity, support compliance, and protect sensitive data.
This is a hands-on role, ideal for someone with a solid foundation in ISO 27001 who’s ready to step up. You’ll be the go-to person for internal security and audit readiness, working cross-functionally across teams and directly with senior stakeholders.
The Role
* Manage and maintain ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus compliance
* Own internal audit preparation, documentation, and policy upkeep
* Act as the company’s ISMS lead, ensuring up-to-date controls and governance
* Partner with leadership to evolve best practices and align with upcoming standards
* Support the wider security and compliance roadmap, including potential paths toward ISO 9001
Key Skills
* Experience in Information Security, Compliance, or Governance roles
* Solid working knowledge of ISO 27001 (2+ years’ experience preferred)
* Familiarity with Cyber Essentials Plus standards and audit preparation
* Excellent communication and documentation skills
* Comfortable working independently in a lean, agile environment
* Confidence engaging with senior leadership and third-party auditors
* Experience in regulated, compliance-heavy, or startup environments
* Exposure to OWASP or security testing frameworks
Why Apply?
* Full ownership of a high-impact, business-critical function
* Small, collaborative team where your ideas shape the direction
* Clear progression path into senior InfoSec leadership roles
* Flexible hybrid working – typically 2–3 days on-site per week
* Free parking and accessible via public transport
