We are seeking an exceptional and forward thinking Head of Information & Cyber Security to lead our Trust's security strategy, ensuring our information, systems, and digital services remain resilient, compliant, and protected against evolving cyber threats.
This is a senior leadership position, accountable to the Board for establishing and maintaining a Trust-wide information security management program, responsible for shaping our information security governance framework, providing expert advice to executive leadership, developing an organisational security culture, and ensuring we meet all relevant regulatory and legislative requirements.
The Head of Information & Cyber Security is responsible for shaping and executing the Trust's information & cyber security strategy, ensuring alignment with Trust priorities and digital transformation goals.
This role will oversee the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of security policies, frameworks, standards and controls and manage the Trust's approach to risk assessment, threat intelligence, incident response and business continuity.
As Head of Information & Cyber Security you will be responsible for ensuring compliance with key regulations and standards including NIS2, DSPT, CAF, ISO27001, Cyber Essentials Plus, Data Protection Act 2018 and UK GDPR.
You will oversee the effective security operations, monitoring, vulnerability management and penetration testing programmes and act as the key point of contact with external partners such as the NHS Cyber Security Centre, suppliers and third-party security providers.
We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, covering one of the largest geographical areas of any NHS trust in the country. Leading in innovation and quality – opening a state of the art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England. Do you want to work in one of the best performing NHS organisations in England? Work in an organisation that supports its staff and focuses on staff experience as much as it does the experience of its patients? You can live and breathe in an area that has the cleanest air, cost effective living, great nightlife, some of the best schools with a wealth of history available on your doorstep. Sound too good to be true? Well it isn’t, this is what you get when you work for Northumbria Healthcare, this is the Northumbria Way! Please read ‘applicant guidance notes’ before submitting your application.
