Salary: £50,000 - £70,000 per annum (Depending on experience)

About the Role

Are you an experienced Information Security professional looking to take full ownership of a digital resilience function? We are recruiting a Digital Resilience Manager to lead and mature the cyber and information security capability for a rapidly growing FTSE 250 business.

This is a broad, hands-on 12-month fixed-term contract. The role is perfectly split to keep you engaged across both strategy and operations:

*

70% Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC): Policy, risk management, assurance, and supplier security.

*

30% Security Operations: Managing an outsourced detection and response capability (MSSP).

You will work closely with cross-functional teams to embed security-conscious practices, taking day-to-day direction from the internal Director of Digital Transformation and receiving professional, strategic oversight from an external Fractional CISO.

Key Responsibilities

Governance, Risk & Compliance (70%)

*

Policy & Frameworks: Own the lifecycle of digital resilience policies and standards—drafting, reviewing, and ensuring compliance with changing threat landscapes.

*

Risk Management: Maintain the functional risk register, run the Risk & Compliance Committee, and translate technical risks into clear business language for board reporting.

*

Audit & Certification: Track and remediate internal/external audit findings, maintain Cyber Essentials compliance, and help prepare the business for future ISO 27001 certification.

*

Third-Party Security: Oversee the supplier security risk process, embedding security requirements into procurement and onboarding.

*

Data Protection & Training: Conduct DPIAs in collaboration with Legal, and design/run the company-wide security awareness and phishing simulation programmes.

Security Operations (30%)

*

MSSP Oversight: Act as the primary point of contact for the Managed Security Service Provider, managing day-to-day detection, response, and service levels.

*

Vulnerability Management: Operate the vulnerability management cycle, prioritising and driving remediation aligned to Cyber Essentials.

*

Incident Response: Lead the coordination of security incidents alongside internal teams and incident response partners (occasional out-of-hours support may be required, compensated via TOIL or pay).

*

Technical Assurance: Oversee endpoint protection, identity controls, and email security, while scoping and coordinating external penetration testing.

About You

Essential Criteria:

*

Proven experience in cyber/information security spanning both GRC and operational security.

*

Strong grasp of risk management principles, risk registers, and running governance forums.

*

Demonstrable experience overseeing an MSSP (alert triage, tuning, and service governance).

*

Solid understanding of vulnerability management, incident response, and third-party supply chain risk.

*

Knowledge of UK GDPR and experience conducting DPIAs.

*

Superb communication skills, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels and translate technical terms into business language.

Desirable Criteria:

*

Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer/Auditor).

*

Experience with ISO 27001 implementation and Cyber Essentials / Cyber Essentials Plus.

*

Familiarity with Microsoft 365 security tooling (Intune, Conditional Access, Defender).

*

A background in property, construction, or similar industries.

What’s on Offer?

*

Salary: £50,000 - £70,000 (DOE)

*

Work-life Balance: Structured hybrid working (2 days on-site in South Yorkshire)

*

Flexibility: TOIL or paid overtime for the rare occasions out-of-hours incident support is required.

*

Professional Growth: Direct exposure to executive leadership and mentoring from a Fractional CISO.

To Apply: If you are a proactive problem-solver who thrives in a dynamic, growing environment, please submit your CV today for immediate consideration.

*Please not visa sponsorship is not available on this role
