This proactive approach to security ensures that we stay ahead of potential threats of cyber-attacks and continuously improve our defences.

We are looking for a highly motivated Vulnerability Management Expert to facilitate Vulnerability remediation activities to a wide audience of IT stakeholders.

• Maintain and enhance dashboards in Excel and Power BI to reflect current security exposure.

• Update remediation KPIs, trends, and compliance scores.

• Monitor remediation SLAs and drive adherence across teams.

• Track key indicators such as overdue vulnerabilities, mean time to remediate, reopened findings, exception volumes, and recurring vulnerabilities.

• Identify systemic causes of delayed remediation and propose process improvements.

• Provide actionable insights to reduce vulnerability backlog and improve patch compliance.

Remediation Coordination

• Review open vulnerabilities and track remediation progress with the relevant asset or application owners.

• Send daily or weekly follow-up emails/reminders to responsible parties.

• Help stakeholders understand processes, vulnerability severity, business impact, and recommended remediation actions.

• Ensure vulnerabilities are routed to the correct asset owners and tracked through agreed workflows.

• Monitor ageing, SLA breaches, exceptions, and blockers, and drive timely resolution.

• Prioritise remediation based on severity, exploitability, asset criticality, exposure, and business impact.

• Distinguish between false positives, accepted risks, compensating controls, and genuine remediation needs.

Advisory & Support

• Respond to queries from IT teams and business units regarding vulnerabilities and remediation orchestration.

• Support IT teams and business units with vulnerability trend analysis and related insights.

• Support patching cycles by correlating vulnerabilities to available patches or configuration fixes.

Documentation & Process Management

• Document the remediation orchestration and related processes.

• Track vulnerabilities through their lifecycle stages: identified, validated, assigned, remediated, exceptioned, risk accepted, and closed.

• Ensure evidence of remediation or exception approval is captured and maintained.

• Maintain clear audit trails for vulnerability decisions and remediation status.

• Create team- and tribe-level dashboards for personalised reporting and security posture management.

• Translate vulnerability findings into actionable tickets, tasks, or remediation campaigns.

Stakeholder Engagement

• Participate in daily, weekly, and monthly security orchestration and governance calls with multiple business units, senior management, and stakeholders.

• Liaise with infrastructure, development, and risk teams to ensure alignment on remediation priorities.

• Escalate unresolved or critical issues to relevant senior management stakeholders, including CISO and GTS, periodically and as needed.

• Support governance routines, including weekly review boards, escalation forums, and monthly risk reporting.

• Coordinate exception, deferral, and risk acceptance requests.

• Ensure exceptions are time-bound, justified, approved, and periodically reviewed.

• Track compensating controls and residual risk where immediate remediation is not possible.

• Escalate expired or repeatedly extended exceptions.

Executive Reporting & Communication

• Draft bullet points or slides for management reports and board updates (as needed).

• Prepare quarterly metrics and summaries on the organisation’s security posture.

• Produce and share executive dashboards to highlight risk reduction progress and key wins.

Requirements:

Technical Skills:

• Vulnerability scanner knowledge: experience with tools such as Rapid7, Tenable, Qualys, or similar platforms.

• Data analysis and reporting: strong proficiency in Excel, including pivot tables, formulas, and macros, and Power BI.

• Security knowledge: solid understanding of vulnerability types, CVSS, threat exposure, and patch management.

Process & Communication Skills:

• Proven ability to track, escalate, and follow up on remediation tasks with multiple teams.

• Skilled in explaining technical security issues to non-technical stakeholders.

• Familiarity with risk-based prioritisation and remediation strategies.

Stakeholder Management:

• Strong interpersonal skills to manage and maintain productive relationships with cross-functional stakeholders.

• Ability to coordinate stakeholders and drive outcomes autonomously.

• Experience with ITSM tools, such as ServiceNow, Jira, or Azure DevOps, for remediation workflows and ticketing.

Good to Have:

• Experience with automated orchestration platforms, such as SOAR solutions.

• Certifications such as CompTIA Security+, ISC2 CC, or CEH are a plus.

• Exposure to governance and compliance frameworks (e.g., ISO 27001, NIST, PCI-DSS).

• Experience in writing and presenting reports for senior leadership.

Soft Skills:

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.

• Strong collaboration skills with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment with multiple priorities and deadlines.

• Strong operational discipline and the ability to manage large volumes of findings.

• Comfortable working with ambiguity and driving clarity across teams.
