Information Security Lead Auditor

Department: Audit

Employment Type: Permanent

Reporting To: Regional Operations Manager

Description

Full driving licence is required as this is a field based role. Join our growing Lead Auditor teams across the UK!

At ISOQAR we empower organisations to achieve their highest potential. Through our portfolio of progressive solutions and a comprehensive range of certifications and industry leading insights, we lead by example to amplify excellence for the organisations we support. ISOQAR is part of the Alcumus Group, a global leader in support and solutions that help organisations increase resilience and manage risk, protecting customers, workforce, stakeholders and the environment.

Due to our continued growth we are seeking professionals within information security to join our growing Lead Auditor teams who support a breadth of clients across the UK. With onsite practical experience and deep knowledge of industry processes, policies and regulations you will help clients reach their full potential. While internal audit experience is helpful, it is not mandatory as we offer comprehensive training via our academy. Following Global and Divisional inductions you will embark on a 12 week training programme, including classroom and onsite learning with a Senior Lead Auditor to achieve your Lead Auditor qualifications within Quality Management Systems (9001) and Information Security Management Systems (27001).

What that means day to day

The life of a Lead Auditor is both fun and varied, and no two days are the same. The responsibilities include:

• Getting to know our clients and their products
• Hosting opening meetings - let's help our clients understand our audit process as much as we can
• Leading the audit - this is where your subject matter expertise comes into play
• Report writing - once the audit is complete, it is time to finalise it and produce a report for the client to receive
• Ongoing learning and development - if you join us with knowledge of just one standard, we will train and upskill you to audit against others

What you'll need to be successful

You will have practical workplace experience in information technology and information security. Ideal candidates may have worked in roles such as IT Systems Architect, Cloud Systems Engineer, Network Engineer, Cyber Intelligence Specialist, Digital Forensics Analyst or similar positions. We are open to considering candidates with relevant experience beyond these specific roles. Your expertise in the field is essential for this role.

The role will involve regional and national travel, so you should be comfortable with overnight stays and hold a full driving licence. You should be a confident communicator, both verbally and written, with positive influencing skills. Thorough and concise report writing experience is essential.

What you'll get in return
