You'll lead the team responsible for threat detection, incident response, and recovery. You'll work closely with our outsourced SOC and collaborate with internal stakeholders to ensure that we're prepared for any cyber challenge.

The opportunity to join our team
The Head of Cyber Security Resilience enables the organisation to rapidly detect, respond to, and recover from cyber threats and incidents through strategic leadership, operational excellence, internal customer focus, and a relentless focus on continuous improvement. They lead the team responsible for the frontline defence of the organisation's information assets, working in collaboration with other Cyber Security teams and an outsourced Security Operations Centre (SOC). This role involves looking after the detection, response, and recovery aspects of security. You will understand where attacks are coming from and act accordingly. In the event of a breach or incident, your expertise in cyber threat intelligence will be critical to understanding where the attacks are likely to originate. You will be responsible for managing incidents and emergencies, requiring you to maintain a very calm and operational approach. The role requires you to leverage existing managed security providers and ensure their operations align with our objectives and expectations. This aspect of the role is crucial for our operational success.
What you will bring
In this role, you will bring extensive expertise and a customer-centric mindset. Internally, you will have mentored, challenged, and supported a SOC team previously, ensuring they possess the depth of experience needed to handle critical incidents independently. Your influence and accountability will be key in transforming complex issues into simple, clear strategies, demonstrating a high level of influence across all areas of your responsibility. You will need a strong sense of commercial arrangements to manage our suppliers effectively, negotiating and putting the right kind of pressure on them to achieve the desired outcomes. A deep understanding of security technologies such as SIEM, SOAR, and EDR, along with threat detection principles, attacker tactics, and forensic techniques, is required. Additionally, you will have the ability to translate technical details into strategic insights for senior leadership, maintaining effective communication during crises.
