We are looking for a skilled Information Security Manager to join our team and be billed out to a key client to enhance their information security posture.

What you will be doing;

We are seeking an experienced Information Security Manager to play a critical role in ensuring the security and resilience of our client's IT systems and data.

This role combines both strategic leadership and technical expertise, enabling you to influence decision-making, advise on best practices, and ensure continuous improvement in the security posture. You will lead efforts in risk management, regulatory compliance, incident response, and security awareness training, while ensuring the client remains aligned with industry standards and legal requirements (e.g., ISO 27001, GDPR, Cyber Essentials). Your expertise will help mitigate risks, defend against cyber threats, and maintain the highest level of security across the client's infrastructure, all while maintaining a clear focus on delivering outstanding service and value.

Key to your success will be your ability to manage complex security challenges, foster strong relationships with teams, and drive a proactive security culture within their organisation.

• Conduct security risk assessments and vulnerability management for the client, providing actionable recommendations to mitigate risks.
• Lead incident detection, investigation, and response efforts, ensuring minimal impact to the client’s business operations.
• Collaborate with the client’s IT and business teams to integrate security solutions and processes that align with their goals.
• Deliver regular reporting to the client on security status, incidents, risks, and compliance with agreed SLAs and KPIs.
• Provide guidance and support for the client in meeting their regulatory obligations (e.g., GDPR compliance, data protection).
• Oversee and lead security audits, penetration testing, and vulnerability assessments for the client.
• Manage security awareness training programs for the client’s staff, fostering a culture of cybersecurity awareness.
• Provide ongoing advice on emerging threats, vulnerabilities, and security best practices, helping the client stay ahead of the curve.
• Ensure that the client’s information security posture is continuously improved through proactive security measures, monitoring, and reporting.

What you will bring;

• Proven experience (typically 5+ years) in information security management or a related role, preferably within an MSP or client-facing environment.
• Strong understanding of UK and international cybersecurity regulations, including GDPR, Cyber Essentials, and ISO 27001.
• Experience managing and leading security operations, incident response, and risk assessments.
• Understanding and knowledge of security technologies (SIEM, firewalls, endpoint protection, encryption, etc.) and practices (vulnerability management, penetration testing).
• Experience working in a service delivery or consultancy capacity with external clients.
• Excellent communication skills, able to convey technical security information to non-technical stakeholders at all levels.
• Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CISA, or equivalent are highly desirable.
• Ability to work independently, take initiative, and work in a dynamic environment.
• Proactive approach to identifying and solving problems before they escalate.
• Strong leadership and mentoring skills to support junior staff and teams.
• Ability to translate business needs into security solutions.
