• Direct incident response from detection and containment through recovery, executive communication, root-cause analysis, and post-incident improvement.
• Improve security across infrastructure, networks, endpoints, applications, cloud platforms, data, and privileged access.
• Drive vulnerability management, audit remediation, and the implementation of effective security controls.
• Ensure security tools provide appropriate coverage across in-scope technology assets.
• Use service levels, performance indicators, and risk indicators to improve operational quality and resilience.
• Advise senior stakeholders on security priorities, risks, escalations, and response options.
• Partner with regional and local security leaders, delivery teams, business entities, and external providers.
• Contribute to global security programmes while championing a strong, practical security culture across Asia.

What You’ll Bring

• Extensive experience in IT and cybersecurity, ideally including 15+ years in IT and 15+ years in IT security.
• Senior-level experience leading security operations, service delivery, incident management, or major cybersecurity programmes.
• Strong expertise in infrastructure security, security incident management, application security, vulnerability management, and cloud security.
• Broad understanding of enterprise technology environments, including networks, endpoints, applications, cloud platforms, architecture, and data security.
• Experience handling significant security incidents and coordinating technical, business, and executive stakeholders.
• Knowledge of security operations, risk management, service delivery, audit remediation, and control frameworks.
• Familiarity with Asian regulatory environments, such as HKMA, MAS, Malaysia RMiT, Bank of Thailand requirements, and Indonesia’s financial-services regulations, as well as relevant international regulations.
• The ability to translate complex technical topics into clear business decisions and priorities.
• Strong communication, stakeholder management, analytical, and escalation-management skills.
• A degree or diploma in Computer Science, IT, Engineering, or a related discipline, or equivalent professional experience.

What Will Make You Stand Out

• Recognised certifications such as CISSP, CCSP, CISM, CISA, CEH, GCIH, GCIA, or OSCP.
• Experience leading audit remediation and security risk-reduction programmes.
• Practical knowledge across several of the following areas:
• • Firewalls, intrusion prevention, DDoS protection, secure web access, email security, and web application firewalls
  • Endpoint protection, EDR, anti-malware, and data loss prevention
  • SIEM, security monitoring, incident handling, and response
  • Secure architecture, secure SDLC, SAST, and DAST
  • IaaS and PaaS security, cloud compliance, data security, and DevSecOps
• The confidence to operate independently while succeeding in a complex, international matrix organisation.

• A highly visible leadership role with regional and global influence.
• The opportunity to shape security operations across a diverse Asian business landscape.
• Exposure to complex, business-critical cybersecurity challenges.
• Close collaboration with global cyber defence teams, local security leaders, technology specialists, and senior decision-makers.
