Information Security Officer - Operational Technology | Critical Infrastructure | North West | Hybrid | £Competitive + Excellent Benefits
I'm currently working with a major organisation operating in a highly regulated, mission-critical environment to recruit an Information Security Officer with a focus on Operational Technology (OT). This is a rare and exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking team driving cyber resilience across industrial systems and critical infrastructure.
As the Information Security Officer - OT, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping and maintaining security posture across complex OT environments. You'll work closely with internal stakeholders and external partners, ensuring policy compliance, managing risks, and supporting incident response activities across key business functions.
💼 The Role:
Act as a trusted advisor to business units on all matters of OT security.
Support the development and maintenance of security policies and ensure alignment with national/international frameworks (NIST, IEC 62443, ISO27001, etc.).
Lead on cyber risk assessments, vulnerability analysis, and compliance reviews.
Assist in incident investigations and ensure lessons learned are captured and implemented.
Help drive the security compliance schedule and contribute to audit, supplier, and project reviews from a security perspective.
Translate complex security threats into business risks and provide clear guidance to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
🧠 What We're Looking For:
Solid experience in an information security, cyber risk, or compliance role within IT/OT environments.
Proven exposure to Operational Technology systems (e.g., ICS, SCADA).
Industry-recognised certifications: CISSP, CRISC, CompTIA Security+, Network+, etc.
Strong working knowledge of NIST, IEC 62443, and ideally ISO27001 audit processes.
Background in regulated sectors such as utilities, energy, or critical infrastructure is highly advantageous.
A confident communicator with the ability to influence and advise at all levels.
💡 Why This Role?
This is more than just a compliance role-it's a chance to make a tangible impact on the resilience of essential systems that affect millions. You'll be part of a collaborative, growing cyber resilience team that is serious about security and backed by board-level support.
If you're passionate about OT security, want to work in a fast-evolving and meaningful space, and are ready to take ownership of policy, risk, and advisory work in a critical infrastructure setting-we want to hear from you.
