Information Security Candidate

Role Summary

Clarity is looking for an Information Security Candidate to join our Information Security team, supporting a diverse range of clients across the Channel Islands.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with an interest in cyber security, information assurance and risk management to develop their career within an established technology services business.

The role offers a varied combination of technical security, governance, compliance and client advisory work. Working alongside colleagues across our wider technical and professional services teams, you will help clients understand their information security risks, strengthen their security arrangements and meet their regulatory and compliance obligations.

We recognise that information security professionals come from a variety of backgrounds and are therefore open to considering candidates with different levels of experience. Whether you are looking to build on an existing technical background, develop your experience in information security consultancy or bring established expertise to the team, we are interested in hearing from you.

The position can be based in either our Guernsey or Jersey office, with some travel between the islands and on-site client-site visits expected.
 

The Role

You will contribute to the delivery of practical, commercially appropriate security advice and services to our clients.

Your work will cover a broad range of information security activities, including:

• Security reviews and reporting: Reviewing security information, identifying potential risks and producing clear, meaningful reports and recommendations for clients, including senior management and boards.
• Governance, risk and compliance: Supporting clients with information security policies, risk assessments, audits and recognised assurance frameworks, including Cyber Essentials, IASME and ISO 27001.
• Security incidents and investigations: Assisting with the identification, investigation and management of cyber security incidents, including documenting findings and recommending improvements.
• Technical security and improvement: Working with colleagues and clients to review security controls, identify vulnerabilities and support improvements across systems, infrastructure and cloud environments.
• Client advice and engagement: Helping clients understand their security responsibilities and translating technical findings into practical actions that support their business needs.

This role provides the opportunity to work with a range of technologies, particularly Microsoft and its associated security platforms, while developing broader experience in information security management, regulatory compliance and cyber risk.

• Experience or a relevant background in information technology, cyber security, information security, risk management or compliance.
• An understanding of information security principles, cyber risks and the importance of effective security controls.
• Familiarity with Microsoft 365/Azure and associated security technologies, or a willingness to develop expertise in this area.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to present technical information clearly to different audiences.
• Good organisational skills, attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities.
• A collaborative approach and the confidence to engage professionally with colleagues, clients and senior stakeholders.

Relevant academic or professional qualifications, including recognised cyber security certifications, would be advantageous. However, we are equally interested in candidates who can demonstrate relevant practical experience, transferable skills and a willingness to learn and develop.

The scope of responsibilities and level of autonomy will reflect the experience and capabilities of the successful candidate.
