The Role

You will play a critical role in defining, developing, and implementing security policies, procedures, and best practices during a transition phase. This is not a purely strategic position — we are looking for a “doer” who can actively engage with the detail, collaborate with stakeholders, and ensure security requirements are clearly defined and delivered.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and recommend security policies, standards, and procedures
  • Shape security requirements and contribute to the delivery roadmap
  • Work closely with stakeholders and partners to ensure alignment with outsourcing requirements
  • Support the security workstream through a critical transition phase
  • Ensure long-term sustainability of security practices and controls

Key Requirements

  • Proven experience in a hands-on Security Architect role
  • Strong knowledge of security frameworks, policies, and governance
  • Experience working in environments involving outsourcing or third-party partners
  • Technical expertise with Splunk and CrowdStrike (essential)
  • Ability to balance detail-oriented delivery with broader architectural thinking
  • Experience within the legal sector (essential)
