The Department:
The Information Security Team is responsible for protecting the company's infrastructure, intellectual property and digital assets. The team has a large scope of responsibilities and tackles projects in different security verticals (Cloud Security, Application Security, Corporate Security, Detection and Response, etc.)
In this role, you will have the opportunity to work on various projects based on your skillset, experience, career goals and the team's priorities.
The Role
This is a hands on Security Engineering role, leading a small team, defining and delivering against the strategy for a range of areas including:
* Endpoint security / EDR
* Vulnerability Management
* Cloud security
* Email Security
* Security testing
With a view to also taking on responsibility for maturing other areas (Secure by Design, Application Security / secure DevOps etc).
The ambition for this role is to own the engineering part of our defence-in-depth InfoSec strategy, taking an automation-first approach. This will involve the maturing of existing controls and the selection and integration of best of breed products alongside emerging suppliers.
As a core member of the CISO's security leadership team this role will work closely with peers including Security Operations (in defining requirements and during live incidents) and Identity and Access Management.
The role will also interact with partners in our Technology organisation and beyond - who we rely on to deploy our tools, and who rely on us to provide security advice and approvals.
This role will suit candidates with a strong cyber security background in the financial or tech sector.
