You will act as the manager’s right hand on vision, direction, and content, driving a “security by design” approach across the organization.
About the role
As a Senior Cyber Security Strategic Lead, you are responsible for bridging the gap between high-level strategy and technical execution. This role focuses on strategic influence and content leadership rather than formal people management. You will support two primary missions:

Issue Management: Ensuring the client remains in control of detection, analysis, and response to non-compliances, ensuring timely remediation to minimize impact on risk appetite.
You will:
-
Drive the security-by-design approach across development teams.
-
Translate complex cyber security risks into actionable insights for non-experts.
-
Influence stakeholders across a complex landscape without needing formal authority.
Responsibilities
-
Creating and maintaining long-term strategic plans for security integration.
-
Analyzing IT standards against current performance to identify and remediate gaps.
-
Providing technical leadership to ensure high-quality security outcomes in application and platform security.
-
Managing the prioritization and flow of work within the security backlogs.
Who are you?
Experience
-
Minimum of 10 years of experience in Cyber Security, IT, Risk Management, or the Banking sector.
-
Proven track record in building and communicating long-term strategic visions.
-
Deep understanding of DevOps Security, application security, and platform security.
-
Background in application development is highly preferred.
Profile
-
Connector: You have a strong ability to connect risk, architecture, and developer behavior.
-
Influencer: You move easily in a complex stakeholder field and can communicate clearly to different groups.
-

-
Strategic Thinker: You can translate the client’s high-level strategy into a concrete 3-year roadmap.
