Qualifications - Must Have Degree-level education in computer science, information security, engineering, or a related technical discipline; or equivalent professional experience. Professional certification in cyber security or enterprise architecture: CISSP, CISM, SABSA, TOGAF, or equivalent; Microsoft SC-100 (Cybersecurity Architect) is particularly relevant. Desirable but not essential PRINCE2 Practitioner, MSP, or equivalent programme management qualification. SABSA Chartered Security Architect or TOGAF certification, demonstrating structured enterprise architecture capability alongside delivery credentials. Membership of a recognised professional body (CIISec, BCS, ISACA, (ISC)²) is welcome Experience Demonstrated experience defining and delivering a Zero Trust strategy, architecture, and enterprise roadmap; able to show tangible outcomes from prior Zero Trust programmes, not just participation in them. Proven ability to lead complex cyber or technology programmes end-to-end - from strategy definition through architecture Deep knowledge across the Zero Trust domains - identity, device health, network, application, and data - and the ability to design integrated architectures that apply Zero Trust principles coherently across all of them rather than as point solutions. Strong working knowledge of the technology platforms that underpin Zero Trust delivery in the Microsoft ecosystem: Entra ID Conditional Access, Privileged Identity Management, Microsoft Defender suite, Intune, and Zscaler or equivalent ZTNA platforms. Familiarity with the ABF security technology estate - Zscaler, Microsoft E5/Defender, Entra ID, Intune, Claroty - and the specific integration considerations that arise when implementing Zero Trust across a mixed IT/OT environment. Knowledge of OT/ICS network environments and the specific challenges of applying Zero Trust principles in manufacturing and operational technology contexts where Legacy protocols, availability constraints, and safety requirements limit the applicability of standard IT controls Zero Trust Strategy Definition Lead the development of a clear, outcome-driven strategy for ABF's adoption of Zero Trust principles; establish the strategic direction, target outcomes, and enterprise-wide roadmap, ensuring alignment to business priorities, the GCS cyber strategy, and the broader technology agenda. Define the sequencing and dependency map for Zero Trust adoption across ABF's key domains - identity, device, network, application, and data - and ensure the strategy reflects the realities of ABF's federated operating model, heterogeneous technology estate and existing investments. Present the Zero Trust strategy to senior leadership and the GCS Steering Committee for approval; secure the executive commitment and investment needed to move from strategy into execution. Zero Trust Architecture Ownership Define and maintain the Zero Trust architecture for ABF, aligned to the enterprise technology landscape across identity, network, cloud, and end-user domains; work in close partnership with the Head of Cyber Architecture to ensure Zero Trust design is fully integrated into the Group cyber enterprise architecture and approved reference patterns. Ensure the Zero Trust architecture integrates coherently with related cyber and technology initiatives, including identity transformation (Entra ID, PIM, Conditional Access), network security (Zscaler), endpoint management (Intune/Defender), and cloud security; manage architectural interdependencies proactively across all workstreams. Maintain the architecture as a live artefact; update it as the programme evolves, as ABF's technology landscape changes, and as the Zero Trust vendor and product market develops. Global Zero Trust Blueprint Development Develop a scalable, practical Zero Trust blueprint for rollout across all 11 ABF divisions; establish standardised reference architectures and design patterns, security controls and policies, and operating practices and governance models that divisions can adopt and adapt within defined parameters. Ensure the blueprint is genuinely implementable in ABF's operating context - not a theoretical model but a practical, division-ready package that accounts for the diversity of divisional technology environments, varying levels of IT maturity, and the operational constraints of ABF's manufacturing and retail businesses. Iterate the blueprint based on lessons learned from early divisional implementations; incorporate feedback from Divisional Security Leads and IT teams, and update reference content to reflect what is actually working on the ground. Programme Delivery, Governance & Execution Translate the approved Zero Trust strategy into a deliverable, phased execution plan; define scope, outcomes, milestones, and stage gates for the ZTNA workstream, and manage delivery end-to-end with appropriate rigour and pace. Lead cross-functional delivery teams spanning GCS, divisional IT, architecture, identity, and network workstreams; manage interdependencies, resolve blockers, and maintain delivery momentum across a complex stakeholder landscape. Manage the ZTNA workstream budget; track spend against plan, maintain cost controls at critical delivery points, and provide timely, accurate financial reporting to the Head of Cyber Transformation Programme and the Steering Committee.
