Security Architect Lisbon to €95,000

Would you like to join a forward thinking financial services technology team building the bank of tomorrow, where you'll play a key role in securing modern, web-scale products and protecting customer data?

As a Security Architect, you'll play a key role in designing and implementing security and business continuity controls that protect the organisation and its customers. Working across both technical and operational domains, you'll develop capabilities, tools and processes to manage security and business continuity risks, while contributing to product security, disaster recovery and resilience planning.

You'll create and maintain technically accurate security materials for client presentations, assessments and due diligence.

You'll also help maintain and evolve the organisation's Information Security Management System (ISMS) and Business Continuity Management System (BCMS), ensuring security standards, controls and recovery plans remain aligned with changing threats, technology, standards and client requirements. This will involve staying close to emerging security developments and ensuring changes to processes and the technology landscape are reflected in the organisation's approach to security and resilience.
