Are you a forward-thinking security professional ready to shape how an organisation designs and delivers secure technology? We're looking for a Security & Identity Architect to lead the adoption of Security by Design across a large, diverse technology landscape.

In this senior role, you will:

  • Develop and enhance security assurance frameworks across projects and platforms

  • Define and maintain security non-functional requirements for new solutions

What you'll bring:

  • Strong experience designing and implementing security architecture in complex environments

  • Deep knowledge of identity, access, cloud security, secure development, and risk management
