The opportunity
* Prepare, contribute and report to regional risk governance and board committee meetings, highlighting control status, risk exposure, and readiness.
* Execute risk assessments and control testing across UAE operations in line with SCA cybersecurity guidelines and security best practices.
* Maintain and review Business Impact Assessments (BIA), integrating findings into global resilience planning.
* Contribute to Business Continuity Plan (BCP) documentation, testing, and updates, including entity-specific scenarios.
* Collaborate with Group Security and IT to:
o Align UAE-specific regulatory controls with global policies and control frameworks.
o Contribute to the development of security policies to meet international and UAE compliance requirements.
* Conduct security control validation and document evidence for internal/external audits.
* Participate in remediation planning for audit findings and track progress to closure.
* Support the RISO in preparing and submitting regulatory documentation to regulators.
* Prepare and present security and resilience reports for internal governance committees and local entity management.
* Assist in responses to regulatory examinations, including due diligence and compliance queries.
* Liaise with compliance and legal teams to interpret regulatory changes and propose control adaptations.
* Participate in the regional incident response process, assist with post-incident reviews, and support continuous improvement activities.
* Coordinate with cross-functional stakeholders to embed security requirements into operational processes.
Skills You Should HODL
* 5+ years of experience in Information Security, IT risk management, or compliance.
* Strong understanding of financial cybersecurity frameworks, ISO27001, NIST, and DORA frameworks.
* Experience supporting BCP/DR planning and operational resilience assessments.
* Excellent communication, stakeholder management, and technical documentation skills.
* Security certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO27001 Lead Implementer, or CBCP are highly desirable.
