Full job description

We are seeking an exceptional Director of Information Security to lead and shape our security strategy across the UK and Europe, operating as a key member of our global Information Security leadership team. This high‑profile role serves as the primary strategic partner for all Information Security matters, ensuring robust cyber and information security controls while aligning regional execution with global objectives.

Reporting directly to the Chief Information Security Officer, you will collaborate closely with executive, IT, and risk leaders to strengthen our security posture, drive enterprise-wide compliance, and manage cyber risk across a complex, multi‑entity environment.

This is a unique opportunity for a forward‑thinking, executive‑level security leader to influence direction at scale - balancing regulatory expectations, operational delivery, and evolving cyber threats while enabling the business to achieve its goals securely.

What you can expect as an Director of Information Security:

Hybrid role from our London office, Cannon Street.

Key responsibilities include:

Lead the end‑to‑end information security service for Cabot Business Units, ensuring effective delivery from internal teams, shared services, and external partners.
Provide enterprise‑level security leadership across a complex, multi‑entity organisation operating in four countries.
Influence and align diverse regulatory and organisational environments, maintaining strong executive presence and collaborative partnerships with senior stakeholders.
Act as the senior Information Security representative, driving risk‑based decision‑making and maintaining accountability across business units.
Exercise independent authority during security incidents, making time‑critical decisions with material business and regulatory impact.
Partner with Cabot executives and IT leaders to support fulfilment of InfoSec responsibilities under SMCR, SEAR, and equivalent regimes, ensuring:
Timely resolution of risk events, audit findings, and compliance actions.
Delivery of regulatory obligations, including mandatory learning and accurate completion of Fitness & Propriety documentation.
Lead and develop both direct and matrixed team members, fostering high performance and professional growth.
Monitor emerging cybersecurity insurance requirements and drive maturity improvements aligned with business needs.
Oversee information security compliance programmes covering ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, SOX 404, GDPR, CCPA, and other global regulatory frameworks.
Advise executives and business leaders on security trends, risks, and technologies.
Collaborate with Enterprise Risk, Privacy, and Compliance teams to strengthen information risk management standards, tools, and processes.
Coordinate security risk metrics, KRIs, and measurements across all business units.
Work closely with cross‑functional IT and business teams to ensure security controls are appropriately designed, implemented, and operating effectively.

We are looking for someone with:

12+ years experience with Information Security preferably in a leadership role with executive and board reporting responsibilities
Must have 10+ years experience across common industry security policy areas, including, but not limited to ISO, NIST, COSO, COBIT, PCI, FFIEC, SOX, SSAE16, and others
Minimum 7+ years of experience in Information Security with an emphasis on IT audit, IT risk management, and/or IT compliance
Ability to translate technical risk and vulnerability data into business risk, and effectively communicate potential impacts to the business
Professional certification in information security or compliance (for example, CISSP, CISM, or CISA) required or achievable
