Cyber Security Compliance Officer

Deliver two core security assurance functions within the hub: ensure that security requirements are embedded into projects and solutions from inception through to delivery (Security by Design), and manage the end-to-end information security risk assessment lifecycle for hub-scope third-party suppliers (Third Party Risk Management).

Act as the primary operational assurance interface between the hub and the Group GRC function.

Responsibilities:

- Hub-scope third-party supplier population.

- Operates within globally standardised frameworks - Group Security by Design framework and TPRM process - defined by the Group GRC function.

- Follow-the-sun assurance model alongside two peer hub roles (Americas, Asia, Europe).

- Scope covers hub-based projects, initiatives, and supplier relationships across all business segments within the hub geography.

- Maintain consistent security assessment quality across a varied project pipeline - ranging from infrastructure changes to business application deployments - where project teams have differing levels of security maturity.

- Balance thoroughness of TPRM assessment with hub operational pace and procurement timelines.

- Influence project owners, business stakeholders, and vendors to act on security findings without direct authority.

- Manage end-to-end TPRM accountability at hub level while feeding outcomes into the global risk picture owned by HQ GRC.

- Navigate regional regulatory context (data protection, sector-specific obligations) that affects both assessment tracks.

Intake assessment:

- Review projects and initiatives at inception to identify information security requirements, risks, and applicable controls.

- Conduct structured security intake assessments using the Group Security by Design framework; document outputs and agree requirements with project teams.

- Ensure security requirements are formally captured in project scope and tracked as delivery obligations.

Delivery assurance:

- Assess delivered solutions against the agreed security requirements and Group security architecture baseline prior to go-live.

- Document findings, assign risk ratings, and agree remediation or acceptance decisions with the project owner and Hub Security Lead.

- Maintain a hub-level register of Security by Design assessments, findings, and closure status; report into Group GRC on the defined cadence.

Third Party Risk Management:

- Manage the end-to-end TPRM assessment lifecycle for hub-scope suppliers: initial scoping, questionnaire issuance, response review, risk scoring, findings documentation, remediation tracking, and formal sign-off.

- Operate within the global TPRM platform and process framework defined by HQ GRC; maintain data quality and completeness for the hub supplier population.

- Conduct risk-based prioritisation of the hub supplier population to determine assessment frequency and depth.

- Engage hub-based business units and procurement teams to ensure third-party assurance is embedded in sourcing and contract renewal activity.

- Escalate significant supplier risk findings to the Hub Security Lead and Head of GRC; track remediation to closure.

- Contribute hub TPRM outcomes to the global consolidated third-party risk picture owned by HQ GRC.

- All hub projects above the agreed risk threshold receive a Security by Design intake assessment before design is locked.

- Security by Design delivery assurance completed and documented before go-live for all in-scope projects.

- Hub-scope third-party suppliers assessed, risk-scored, and tracked end-to-end within agreed timescales.

- Significant findings (Security by Design and TPRM) escalated and remediation tracked to closure.

- Hub assessment registers accurate, current, and submitted to Group GRC on cadence.
