We’re looking for an experienced and forward-thinking IT Security Manager to take full ownership of a newly created role within a growing, market leading organisation

This is a rare opportunity to step into a role with true autonomy, where you will define strategy, set policy, influence senior stakeholders, and become the business’s internal cyber and information security expert.

With a collaborative internal tech team and strong external partners, you’ll be empowered to steer, shape, and evolve the entire security landscape.

If you’re excited by building something from the ground up, driving cultural change, and becoming the go‑to voice for security, we want to hear from you.


💡 What Makes This Role Stand Out

Brand‑new role — you get to shape it, define it, and establish best practice
High autonomy — lead policy, governance and compliance independently
Strategic influence — work directly with senior leadership to embed security into every layer of the business
Partner-facing 
Business-wide impact — champion security awareness across every team


🔍 What You’ll Be Doing

Champion & Educate

  • Lead the cultural shift towards a security-first mindset
  • Build awareness programmes and deliver training across the business
  • Act as the internal SME for all security and data protection matters

Define & Govern

  • Design and implement company-wide security policies and standards
  • Own the information security roadmap, governance, and risk management
  • Automate and enforce consistent, scalable security processes

Collaborate & Influence

  • Work closely with senior stakeholders on compliance, data protection and risk
  • Oversee security alignment with the organisation’s MSP and internal technical teams

Oversee & Improve

  • Strengthen security controls and help shape secure-by-design practices
  • Review and refine processes around identity, access, data handling, and system changes
  • Provide clear, concise reporting on risks, posture, incidents, and improvements

✅ What You’ll Bring

  • Proven experience in information security, cybersecurity, GRC, or a similar discipline
  • Strong understanding of modern security practices and governance
  • Confidence working with senior stakeholders and external partners
  • Ability to translate technical concepts into business language
  • A proactive, hands-on approach with the drive to build and grow a function
  • Passion for education, awareness and influencing security culture

Desirable: exposure to SOC services, vulnerability management, ISO/NIST/Cyber Essentials frameworks, Azure/M365 security stack, or experience developing policies and governance.


🎁 What’s In It for You

  • The chance to build and lead a function from day one
  • Complete autonomy to set direction and influence business-wide decisions
  • A supportive environment with strong external technical partners
  • High visibility and the opportunity to make a real, lasting impact
  • Flexibility and trust to deliver meaningful change

📨 Ready to Take Ownership?

If you're an ambitious security professional who wants the freedom to shape strategy, define policy, and lead with impact, we’d love to hear from you.
