What I'm looking for

I am seeking a cybersecurity role where I can drive risk reduction, lead vulnerability remediation, support compliance (ISO27001), collaborate with cross-functional teams, and continue developing technical skills in a learning-focused, forward-thinking organisation.

I am a cybersecurity professional with a background in information security assurance, risk management, and vulnerability remediation, bringing hands-on experience from both public sector and private sector environments. I have worked with Qualys for vulnerability processing, coordinated pen-test remediation, supported ISO27001 implementation, and managed incidents and security reporting to reduce organisational exposure.

My approach combines technical understanding with clear communication: I explain technical issues to non-technical stakeholders, collaborate with ISMs, CISOs and DISOs, and build relationships to drive security objectives. I have supported supplier onboarding and third-party due diligence, administered Imperva user accounts, and produced reports and metrics using Power BI automation.

I am self-motivated, adaptable, and passionate about continuous learning and emerging technologies; I seek to apply my analytical skills, data protection knowledge, and practical security operations experience to a forward-thinking team focused on strengthening security posture and achieving compliance.
