Americas Regional Chief Information Security Officer (CISO)

About the opportunity

We're looking for a security leader for the Americas who's equally comfortable in front of a regulator, inside a risk assessment, or reviewing a piece of technical architecture as part of a lean team. You'll start as Deputy CISO, Americas, with a clear and genuine path to taking on the full Regional CISO role as you build track record in the seat. How quickly that happens is up to you.

This isn't a role for someone who wants to operate purely at policy level, nor for a deep specialist engineer who wants to be configuring tools. It's for someone who can move between both worlds: fluent enough in the technical detail to challenge the Engineers or spot a gap in an architecture review, but credible enough in governance to own a regulatory conversation or a board pack. This is a lean team, so we're not looking for someone to sit back and build a big team under them, this is a direct delivery role. More than anything, we want someone hungry to learn, genuinely curious, and comfortable solving problems they haven't solved before — that matters more to us than ticking every experience box.

What you'll be doing

• Leading on audit defence, risk assessments, and technical architecture reviews across the Americas estate — this is a working role, not an oversight one.

• Own the Americas security risk and compliance programme: policy, controls, risk register, regulatory engagement, and reporting.

• Manage the US GRC lead directly, and work closely with the US SecOps team lead on operational risk and incident response.
