The role
Our engineering teams operate across a diverse and evolving landscape, including large-scale research platforms, in-house compute, cloud infrastructure and internal developer tooling.
As Security Advisory Manager, you will lead a team of security architects, supporting engineers make well-reasoned, proportionate security decisions without adding unnecessary friction.
This is not a policy-heavy role. It focuses on applying sound judgement to real systems, from greenfield builds to complex legacy environments.
You will set the standard for high-quality security advice, ensuring it’s technically credible, practical and aligned with both engineering realities and our risk appetite.

- Leading and developing a team of security architects and business partners
- Setting the direction for Security Advisory and defining what “good” looks like
- Supporting complex design reviews, threat modelling and risk assessments
- Acting as a senior escalation point for challenging security decisions
- Building strong relationships with engineering teams as a trusted partner
- Influencing outcomes through clear reasoning, not authority
- Continuously improving how security guidance is delivered at scale
Who are we looking for?
This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who wants to stay close to the detail, shape how security decisions are made and build a team that engineers genuinely value working with.
The ideal candidate will have the following skills and experience:
- Strong background in security architecture or engineering
- Experience advising across cloud, infrastructure and application environments
- Proven ability to lead or mentor technical security professionals
- Sound judgement balancing security risk with real-world constraints
- Confidence working with highly technical stakeholders
- Ability to communicate complex trade-offs clearly and practically
