Job description

Connect to your Industry

Cyber security is a critical business issue. Organisations are navigating an increasingly complex threat and regulatory landscape while transforming their businesses, adopting new technologies and seeking to grow with confidence. The choices they make about cyber risk can directly affect resilience, customer trust, regulatory outcomes and the ability to deliver on their strategic priorities.

Deloitte’s Cyber practice helps organisations make those choices and turn them into action. We bring together cyber, technology, transformation and industry expertise to help clients understand their most important risks, define the right response and deliver sustainable change. You’ll join a market-leading UK Cyber practice of more than 450 people, within Deloitte’s broader Technology & Transformation business.

Our work includes

Our Cyber Strategy & Transformation team works with senior leaders on complex, enterprise-level cyber challenges spanning three connected areas:

1. Cyber strategy and risk

Helping organisations understand the cyber risks that matter most, make informed choices about where to focus and invest, and define practical strategies aligned to business priorities and risk appetite:

• Assess cyber risk, capability and maturity to identify priority areas for action.

• Develop enterprise cyber strategies, investment priorities and risk-based roadmaps.

• Support executives and boards to understand cyber risk and make clear, evidence-based decisions.

• Interpret relevant regulation, standards and emerging threats in the context of an organisation’s strategy and operating environment.

2. Cyber transformation and delivery

Turning cyber strategy into measurable change by shaping, mobilising and delivering transformation programmes that strengthen capabilities, improve resilience and embed cyber into wider business and technology change.

• Translate strategy and assessment findings into prioritised transformation programmes and delivery plans.

• Shape programme scope, outcomes, governance, dependencies and investment cases.

• Lead or support complex cyber transformation programmes across multiple capabilities and stakeholder groups.

• Help clients track outcomes, manage delivery risk and sustain improvements beyond the programme.

3. Cyber governance and operating models

Helping organisations establish clear accountability and effective ways to govern, manage and oversee cyber risk across the enterprise.

• Design or evolve cyber governance, decision rights, roles and accountabilities.

• Develop cyber operating models that connect security teams with technology, risk and the wider business.

• Define proportionate policies, oversight mechanisms, metrics and reporting that support effective decision-making.

• Help embed cyber risk management into business-as-usual processes and wider enterprise governance
