At Virgin Atlantic, we believe everyone can take on the world — and we’re on a mission to become the most loved travel company. As we chart our next bold course, we’re looking for a new kind of hero: someone who thrives on challenge, champions change, and brings clarity to complexity.
This is your chance to step into a pivotal role in our Information Security team — where your expertise in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) will help protect the heart of our operations and shape the future of secure travel.
In a nutshell
As our Information Security GRC Analyst, you’ll be the trusted advisor guiding our teams through risk, regulation, and resilience. From embedding security into digital transformation to assessing third-party risks and ensuring compliance with ISO 27001, NIST CSF, PCI-DSS, and more — you’ll be the voice of assurance in a fast-moving world. You’ll work across projects, suppliers, and stakeholders, translating technical controls into business impact, and helping us stay one step ahead of emerging threats.
Day to day
* Conduct information security and compliance risk assessments, maintaining and updating our risk register.
* Manage third-party risk — from due diligence and onboarding to ongoing oversight — ensuring suppliers meet our high standards.
* Partner with project teams to embed security, legal, and regulatory requirements into every stage of delivery.
* Develop and enhance security policies and standards, making them clear, relevant, and actionable.
* Support awareness and education programmes that bring our security principles to life.
* Prepare and organise evidence for audits and compliance assessments.
* Participate in governance and risk forums, sharing insights and ideas that help shape our security strategy.
About you
* Hands-on experience with risk assessments, supplier reviews, and control evaluations
* Working knowledge of frameworks like ISO/IEC 27001:2022, NIST CSF, PCI-DSS, and UK GDPR
* Strong communication skills — able to engage both technical and non-technical audiences
* A collaborative mindset and a passion for making security a business enabler
Certifications like CISA, CRISC, or ISO 27001 Lead Implementer are a plus — but what matters most is your drive to make a difference.
Why this role?
This is more than a job — it’s a launchpad. Whether you’re looking to grow into a senior GRC or advisory role, or want to make a real impact in a regulated, high-trust environment, this is your opportunity to lead from the front.
