Job description

  • Own the technical runbooks for our BCDR plan - ensuring backup, restoration, and off-site procedures are regularly tested and documented
  • Manage and resolve IT governance tasks flowing from Vanta, our compliance automation platform, maintaining a green status across all IT controls
  • Conduct regular access and identity reviews; enforce multi-tenant data isolation and least-privilege principles
  • Support audit readiness against NCSC Cyber Assessment Framework (CAF), CSA CAIQ, NIST, and our roadmap towards SOC 2
