Lead our assurance and certification activity, including Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001 and other relevant standards. Bring together the security expertise that already exists across the business into one coherent, prioritised programme of improvement. Direct our external security partners as an extended resource pool for monitoring, assessments and remediation. Assign pragmatic risk levels and support sensible prioritisation of remediation alongside project delivery and other commitments. Report clearly to senior leadership on risk, progress and priorities in business terms. Requirements - Security & Compliance Manager - not exhaustive: Strong experience in security management, security assurance, compliance or a similar role, ideally where systems are delivered into and operated within customer environments. A track record of achieving and maintaining certifications such as ISO 27001 and Cyber Essentials Plus, including managing audits. Practical understanding of securing deployed infrastructure, including firewalls, patching, secure configuration and equipment lifecycle management. Experience leading customer-facing security engagements, including security questionnaires, accreditation and third-party assurance. The presence and communication skills to champion change across teams and to influence stakeholders without direct authority. The judgement to assess risk and business impact pragmatically. Experience coordinating third-party security providers such as managed SOC or security service partners. Familiarity with recognised frameworks such as ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, NIST CSF or similar. Experience in an engineering or manufacturing business delivering long-lived systems would be helpful. Experience in high-trust, regulated or mission-critical environments would be valuable.
