  • Advise on security and regulatory implications of international expansion, new products, and strategic partnerships, providing early guidance so security supports delivery.

  • Manage the security exception lifecycle by reviewing requests, assessing and quantifying risk and impact, ensuring formal sign-off, and driving periodic re-evaluation.
  • Address internal security queries on compliance standards and best practices, and monitor evolving regulation to adapt security frameworks.
  • Map internal controls against new or upcoming regulations, such as the EU AI Act, NIS2, DORA, and regional cybersecurity laws, and identify gaps.
  • Move manual business-as-usual tasks, including questionnaire and request-for-proposal tracking, evidence collection, and policy distribution, into automated governance, risk, and compliance platforms.
  • Help embed risk management processes, control frameworks, and security metrics that provide leadership with a clear view of security posture.
  • Design and drive security awareness programmes that generate behavioural change.
