Why you will love this opportunity as Cyber Security Strategist at Civica

This pivotal, strategic position offers you the opportunity to shape the future of security design, integration, and governance across Civica’s enterprise and cloud landscapes. Collaborating closely with our Head of Cyber Strategy, you will drive the evolution of security architecture that not only aligns with our long-term technology vision but also safeguards the essential services our customers depend on every day.

As a Cyber Security Strategist, you will be at the crossroads of business strategy, architecture, and cyber resilience. You’ll work hand-in-hand with platform, product, development, and enterprise IT teams to embed security seamlessly throughout the entire system development lifecycle — ensuring it’s a foundational element rather than an afterthought. Your efforts will have a direct impact on how we mitigate risk, comply with regulations, and build lasting trust with our global clients.

In this role, you will be instrumental in crafting, implementing, and sustaining the security architecture that protects our cloud environments. By aligning security initiatives with the organisation’s overarching technology strategy and business objectives, you will collaborate closely with platform, product, and development teams to embed security into every stage of development and deployment. Your contributions will be vital to fortifying the company’s overall security stance.

Step into a role where your strategic vision directly shapes the future of enterprise security. You’ll architect innovative frameworks that not only meet global standards like NIST, ISO27001, and GDPR but also drive business success by aligning seamlessly with organizational goals. This is your chance to influence leadership decisions, collaborate across product and engineering teams, and deploy cutting‑edge solutions that safeguard critical infrastructure. From risk evaluation to compliance leadership, your expertise will be recognized as the cornerstone of resilience — with every assessment, report, and recommendation reinforcing your impact. In this position, you won’t just manage security; you’ll define it, ensuring that technology and business move forward together with confidence.
