I'm looking for a Head of Cyber Security to join a dynamic PE-backed business, and lead enterprise efforts across IT Security, Cyber Security and Information Security.

Reporting directly into their CIO, you will lead a team of 4 and will drive the overall security strategy of the business forward - ensuring that security controls, policies and technologies effectively protect the organisation's assets, infrastructure and data.

  • Implement and manage security controls for Microsoft and Azure infrastructure.

  • Drive security architecture and ensure endpoint security.
  • Support M&A security assessments and maintain compliance.

Requirements:

  • Experience in a Cyber Security leadership-level role
  • Proven experience with the MS Security Stack including Defender (Endpoint, Identity, Cloud), Sentinel (SIEM), Entra ID Security Features, and Purview
  • Knowledge of Azure Security controls, including Azure Firewall, Key Vault, Conditional Access, and Azure Network Security
  • Familiarity with standards such as ISO 27001
