  • Simplifying and modernising our technology estate through smart design and automation, reducing manual processes and operational complexity.

  • Collaboration and partner engagement skills — comfortable working across engineering, product, risk, and governance functions.

  • Relevant certifications such as Microsoft Certified: Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals, CISSP, CCSP, or cloud security credentials.
