  • Performing a consultative role to stakeholders on security risks within certain designs.
  • Work with other technical resources across the Bank to produce technical solution designs and appropriate security documentation where necessary.
  • Using your previous experience to design security controls that comply with the Bank's security standards.

To be right for this role, you must have a proven track record in the following:

  • A broad range of technical skills across the IT security space.
  • Previous track record in system design within the security space.
  • Significant knowledge of cyber security from an enterprise business standpoint.

This role is remote with the occasional need to travel to an office, of which there are several dotted around the UK.
