Full job description

Head of Security (CISO)

Location: Hybrid | Permanent

ClearCourse is seeking an experienced Head of Security (CISO) to lead and evolve our group-wide security strategy across a diverse portfolio of 40+ software and payments businesses.

Reporting to the Chief Technology & Transformation Officer, with a dotted line to the Board and Audit Committee, this is a pivotal executive leadership role responsible for security governance, operations, compliance, and risk management across a complex technology estate spanning payments, healthcare, and B2B SaaS.

With ongoing M&A activity, active PCI-DSS obligations, and a rapidly evolving platform landscape, you'll play a critical role in protecting our customers, supporting business growth, and embedding security across the organisation.

What you'll do

Define and lead the Group's security strategy, policies, and governance framework
Provide Board-level reporting on security posture, risks, and compliance activities
Oversee security operations, including threat detection, incident response, and remediation
Act as the executive lead during security incidents and manage external stakeholder communications
Own PCI-DSS compliance across ClearAccept and ClearDebit payment platforms
Lead the Group's Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) function, including ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials, PCI-DSS, and data protection obligations
Manage relationships with auditors, regulators, cyber insurers, and certification bodies
Lead security assessments and integration activities for acquisitions, driving alignment to Group standards
Partner with Platform Engineering teams to embed security practices into development lifecycles without impacting delivery velocity

Requirements

Previous experience operating at CISO level within a multi-product or multi-entity organisation
Hands-on experience leading PCI-DSS compliance programmes and QSA assessments
Proven expertise building and managing enterprise-wide GRC frameworks and risk registers
Experience assessing and integrating security functions following M&A activity
Strong understanding of DevSecOps principles and embedding security into engineering practices
Experience leading major security incidents, including external communications and stakeholder management
Ability to influence at Board and executive leadership level
Strong leadership skills with experience building and developing high-performing security teams

Benefits

Competitive salary + benefits
25 days holiday + your birthday off
Private medical insurance (Bupa) & health cash plan
Life assurance & income protection
Enhanced parental leave & family wellbeing support
Perkbox discounts & perks
Generous pension contributions
Hybrid working model

This is a rare opportunity to shape and lead the security strategy of a fast-growing international software and payments group. You'll work at executive level, influence critical business decisions, and play a key role in safeguarding the future growth of the organisation. If you're passionate about security leadership and thrive in complex, evolving environments, we'd love to hear from you.
