  * 
    Advanced knowledge of cloud security (AWS, Azure, GCP), including Zero Trust and secure architecture principles
  * 
    Proven experience embedding DevSecOps / Secure SDLC into engineering-led environments
  * 
    Hands-on leadership of major incident response, including ransomware and breach scenarios across global teams

    Strong experience with third-party / supplier risk management in complex SaaS ecosystems
  * 
    Experience leading internal and external audits, certification programmes and customer security assessments

    Solid understanding of global data protection regulations (GDPR, CCPA and equivalents)
  * 
    Ability to rapidly assess current state, identify gaps and deliver a clear, prioritised security roadmap
  * 
    Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence C-suite, board and technical teams
  * 
    Experience operating in high-growth, fast-paced or transformation environments
  *
