## Job Description

### Information Security GRC Specialist – Permanent – Hybrid

My client is a leading global investment management organisation seeking a Cyber GRC Specialist to join its Global Technology function in London.

This is a senior hire within the Information Security GRC function, acting as deputy to the Head of Information Security & GRC, supporting the leadership and day-to-day running of the team. The role combines hands-on delivery with leadership responsibility, operating in a 1.5 line capacity - working closely with technology teams while maintaining strong governance oversight.

### The Information Security GRC Specialist is expected to:

- Act as second-in-command within the GRC function, supporting the Head of Information Security & GRC across BAU, projects, and stakeholder engagement.

- Operate in a hands-on 1.5 line capacity, working closely with SecOps, IAM, and cloud teams to ensure controls are effective in practice.

- Lead cyber risk assessments and control reviews, identifying gaps and driving remediation through to closure.

- Act as a bridge between GRC and technical teams, confidently challenging and validating control design and implementation.

- Support board-level reporting and risk metrics, translating technical issues into clear, business-focused insights.

- Contribute to the development and rollout of GRC tooling, with a focus on automation, reporting, and adoption across technical teams.

- Support incident response oversight, including post-incident reviews and control improvements.

- Maintain and enhance security policies, standards, and frameworks aligned to ISO 27001 and NIST.

- Work across Technology, Risk, Compliance, and Audit to embed security into business processes and decision-making.

### The successful Information Security GRC Specialist will possess:

- Proven experience within financial services.

- Proven experience in Information Security, Cyber GRC, or Technology Risk within a regulated environment.

- Experience operating in a hands-on capacity across both governance and technical security domains (e.g. vulnerability management, SIEM/SOC, IAM, cloud security).

- Strong understanding of security frameworks such as ISO 27001 and/or NIST.

- Ability to engage with and challenge technical teams, ensuring controls are implemented effectively rather than existing as policy only.

- Experience producing senior-level reporting, including risk metrics and board-facing outputs.

- Exposure to GRC tooling and/or automation initiatives.

- Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work across technical and non-technical audiences.

- Certifications (e.g. CISSP, CISM) are not essential - practical, real-world experience is key.
