With a culture of genuine care, a flexible approach to work, and opportunities across the group to grow your career and make a meaningful impact, the possibilities for what we can achieve together are endless.

What you’ll do

In the Senior Auditor - Cyber Security position, you’ll be serving as a cyber security assurance resource within the Internal Audit team, supporting the Senior Audit Manager and Audit Manager in the delivery of the annual audit plan and providing independent, objective assurance over the cyber security control environment and risk management processes. In this role, you’ll be an integral part of the Internal Audit (IA) function, and you’ll be the specialist in providing objective assurance and advisory services focused on the effectiveness of cyber security controls, risk management, and governance processes across the business.

Key responsibilities of the role include:

  • Support the development and delivery of the Rolling Audit Plan and Board Reporting.
  • Efficiently plan and execute technology and cyber security audits, including testing controls and documenting findings.
  • Prepare audit reports, provide objective, commercially sensible recommendations, and report to management and the Audit and Finance Committee (AFC).
  • Manage multiple simultaneous audits, follow up on open issues, and oversee relationships with professional service suppliers.
  • Proactively monitor industry trends, emerging threats, and strategic initiatives to support continuous operational improvements in Internal Audit.
  • Build and maintain strong partnerships, representing Internal Audit and engaging effectively with various levels of management and Cyber Security Leadership.
What You’ll Bring

To succeed in this role, we are seeking for one of two profiles:

  • The Technical Specialist: Experience in Cyber Security Operations, GRC, Vulnerability Management, or Security Engineering who wants to move into a strategic Assurance/Risk role, with no prior Audit experience required, OR
  • The Audit Professional: Experienced IT/Cyber Auditor with a strong track record of digging deep into technical details rather than just process reviews.

In further detail, you’ll need to demonstrate:

  • Minimum 3+ years in Security Operations OR Technology Audit Team.
  • Working knowledge of NIST CSF, Essential Eight or similar is required.
  • Curiosity over Checklist: A desire to ask "Why?" and "How does this actually work?" rather than just asking "Is there a policy for this?"
  • Bridge-Building: The ability to be seen as a helpful partner to the Cyber team, not a policeman.
  • Critical Thinking and Resilience: Ability to distinguish between a theoretical risk and a practical, immediate threat, whilst comfortable working in a changing environment and managing multiple stakeholders with different priorities.
  • Relevant industry certifications (e.g., CISA, CISSP, CISM, OSCP, CEH, or cloud certifications) are highly regarded but not mandatory for candidates with strong practical experience.
What you’ll experience

We embrace diversity of thought and love to take on challenges with a pragmatic and innovative approach. Our culture thrives on mutual respect, care, curiosity, openness, and a proactive attitude. We continually seek ways to pair, collaborate, support, and learn from each other as a team!
