- A good knowledge of common information security management frameworks, for example ISO/IEC 27001, ITIL, COBIT as well as those from NIST, including 800-53 and Cybersecurity Framework
- Security qualifications such as SABSA, CISSP or similar would be desirable but not essential
- Familiarity with data privacy and compliance requirements
- Demonstrated experience conceptualising and implementing large-scale web/mobile based services, event driven and/or REST based systems, and managing data at scale.
