Lead the development of security transformation roadmaps, maturity assessments, and long‑term resilience programmes.

Support clients during crisis situations, major incidents, and high‑severity security events, ensuring clear communication and structured response.

Oversee the design and execution of cybersecurity initiatives, including audits, assessments, remediation programmes, and interim leadership engagements.

Provide direction across multiple workstreams, ensuring alignment with client objectives, regulatory requirements, and industry best practices.

Ensure quality, consistency, and timely delivery of all consulting outputs.

Build strong, long‑term relationships with clients, understanding their business needs and identifying opportunities to enhance security posture.

Contribute to the development of new cybersecurity service offerings, methodologies, and frameworks.

Provide insights on emerging threats, regulatory changes, and technology trends to help clients stay ahead of evolving risks.

Represent the organisation in client workshops, executive briefings, and industry discussions.

Work closely with cross‑functional teams including technical consultants, incident responders, architects, and project managers.

Mentor junior consultants and contribute to capability development within the cybersecurity practice.

Proven experience as a senior cybersecurity professional, ideally in a consulting, advisory, or client‑facing leadership role.

Strong understanding of cybersecurity frameworks, governance models, risk management, and security operations.

Experience managing multiple engagements and delivering outcomes in complex, fast‑paced environments.

Exposure to client growth, account development, or solution expansion is beneficial but not mandatory.

Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to engage confidently with senior stakeholders.

Excellent organisational and time‑management abilities, capable of handling multiple priorities simultaneously.

Problem‑solving mindset with the ability to translate technical issues into business‑focused recommendations.

Hands‑on experience with CRM tools and consulting delivery processes.
