London HQ (Initial visit to onboard, then flexibly remote, across the UK)
We’re hiring a Director of Information Security to lead and evolve security across a global, high-growth SaaS business. This is a pivotal leadership role with real influence, shaping strategy, embedding best practice, and protecting a complex, highly regulated environment.
You’ll take ownership of global information security, driving a forward-looking strategy that balances robust protection with business agility. Working closely with the CIO and senior leadership, you’ll ensure security is built into everything from product development to operations, while supporting a large, federated customer base with demanding compliance requirements.
This is a hands-on leadership role. You’ll build, mentor, and inspire a high-performing team of analysts and engineers, while also leading incident response, strengthening threat detection capabilities, and championing security by design and privacy by design principles across the organisation.
Collaboration is key. You’ll partner with Product, Engineering, HR, Legal, Finance, and Operations to embed security into business processes and transformation programmes. You’ll also act as a trusted, customer-facing expert, confidently articulating security posture and driving continuous improvement.
What you’ll bring:
*Suitable amount of years’ experience in information security, including leadership roles
*Strong track record in SaaS or similarly regulated environments from high-tech end user organisations.
*Deep expertise across security architecture, operations, and risk management
*Experience building and leading high-performing teams
*Strong stakeholder management and communication skills
*Commercial awareness, including budget ownership and planning


Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, OSCP, or AWS Security are highly valued.
Desirable:
Experience working with standards such as PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, IRAP, GDPR, or NIST.
If you’re a strategic, pragmatic security leader looking to make a real impact in a global SaaS environment, we’d love to hear from you!
