Role

Senior Information Security Specialist

Category:

Business professional

Team:

Operations

Location:

Bristol, Edinburgh

Terms:

Permanent

We're looking for a Senior Information Security Specialist to help shape and strengthen how we protect our clients, our people, and our business.

This is a newly created position, working closely with the Information Security Manager at the heart of the firm's security strategy. You'll support governance, manage risk, and respond to incidents, while building trusted relationships across the business. From identifying vulnerabilities to driving improvements, you'll play a key role in maintaining the high standards our clients expect and trust.

This is a critical and evolving area of the firm, so we're looking for someone who's confident working in complexity, comfortable with change, and motivated by the opportunity to make a lasting impact.

The role can either be based at our Bristol or Edinburgh office and will involve occasional travel to our other office locations. We offer this role on a hybrid basis.

What you'll be doing:

Supporting and evolving our Information Security Management System (ISO 27001, Cyber Essentials Plus)
Identifying and reducing security risks across people, processes and technology
Investigating and responding to security incidents using a range of security tools
Applying a root cause analysis approach to help prevent future incidents
Providing assurance to clients and supporting security questionnaires
Promoting a strong, firmwide security culture
Communicating complex security topics clearly to a range of stakeholders
Keeping up to date with the latest information security threats and vulnerabilities

What we're looking for:

Strong understanding of information security principles within a professional services environment
Good technical awareness and proven experience in a similar role
Confident stakeholder management skills
Experience with security frameworks (e.g. ISO 27001)
Relevant industry-recognised certifications in security, risk management or IT (desirable)
Strong awareness of the evolving cyber threat landscape, with a genuine interest in all aspects of security
Ability to translate technical risks into clear, practical advice
A curious mindset with a passion for continuous improvement

If you're looking for a role where you can influence, raise standards, and deliver work that has a real and lasting impact, we'd love to hear from you.

You will join a workplace recognised for excellence, flexibility and responsible business practices, including:

RollOnFriday's ‘Best Law Firm to Work At' — five years running
‘Law Firm of the Year' at the Legal Business Awards 2025
