Vulnerability Management Lead | Manchester | Hybrid Are you a forward-thinking security leader who prioritises automation over manual tasks? We are looking for a Vulnerability Management Lead to head a high-performing team and unify the risk strategy for a dual-headquartered global leader in financial information services. You will be part of a growing technical and security hub in Manchester City Centre, with two days per week required in the office. Operating in 30 countries, this firm is a critical pillar of the global capital markets, providing the essential credit and risk insights that drive international finance. This isn’t a role for a "legacy" candidate; we need a modern strategist to bridge the gap between infrastructure and application security while championing AI-driven solutions in an environment that is actively redefining enterprise workflows through technology. The Mission: Working with your peers across the US and UK, you will build the entire roadmap for how this global organisation identifies, prioritises, and fixes risks across its digital footprint. Strategic Leadership: Define the VM roadmap, manage budgets, and set performance metrics like KPIs and OKRs. Automation First: Leverage AI and automation—such as Copilot Studio—to move away from repetitive, manual tasks. Risk-Based Prioritisation: Use threat intelligence to prioritise remediation based on actual business impact rather than just "fixing everything". Stakeholder Navigation: Act as a solution-oriented partner to Engineering and App Dev teams, navigating a complex corporate environment with authenticity. What You Bring to the Table: Experience: Ideally 5–10 years in Information Security, with specific experience in a dedicated Vulnerability Management role. Technical Breadth: High-level oversight across SAST, DAST, SCA, and Cloud Security (CSPM). Automation Mindset: Keen on candidates who seek "agentic" solutions and automation (using AI/Copilot Studio) rather than manual, repetitive tasks. Maturity
