Every day offers a variety of exciting challenges and exceptional opportunities played out on a national and often international stage. You’ll be amongst some of the best and brightest – all with a common goal of working to keep people safe.

The role of the Compliance & Protective Monitoring Unit (CPMU) is to provide security, audit and compliance across all National CT systems to establish associated accreditation requirements.

The role of the Security Engagement & Coordination Unit (SECU) is to manage the coordinated implementation of the SOCs strategic framework and work plan, both nationally and locally. The SECU will establish mechanisms for regional integration and networking to develop active partnerships across national CTP Compliance functions.

Ensure the SOC supports stringent data protection, identity management, and access control requirements, including PIM/PAM. Develop coherent processes for resilience, escalation, containment, and recovery across critical services. 4. Supplier, SME and Ecosystem Coordination Direct a blended model of internal teams, external partners, SMEs, and specialist consultancies. Hold delivery partners to account for performance, quality, and alignment with the SOC strategy. Oversee the technical and commercial evolution of services delivered under multi-year Statements of Work. 5. Stakeholder Influence and Organisational Alignment Act as the senior cyber representative for the programme, engaging Directors, C-level leaders, digital delivery groups, architects, and operational teams. Shape security behaviours, embed best practice, and develop a culture of proactive defence across the organisation. Support wider transformation initiatives by advising on security patterns, architectural direction, and investment priorities. Required Background and Expertise Leadership experience as Head of SOC, SOC Director, or senior cyber operations leader within central government or a high-assurance regulated environment. Proven track record of building SOC capabilities from scratch, including technology architecture, operating models, and service frameworks. Deep knowledge of SOC functions, cloud-native defence approaches, security engineering practices, and modern detection and response architectures.
