Group Head of Information Security

Job description

The Head of Information Security is a senior leadership position within the Office of the CISO, reporting directly to the Group CISO. The role carries accountability for the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of the Group Information Security Management System (ISMS) across all Davies entities globally, including newly acquired businesses. The role is based in the India Global Capability Centre (GCC) and carries enterprise-wide authority for Group information security governance, assurance and risk leadership across all Davies entities globally. This is a strategic role that goes beyond traditional ISMS stewardship. The Group Head of Information Security is expected to provide business-driven security and information risk leadership, influencing outcomes at Board and Executive Committee level and enabling growth within risk appetite. In a rapidly evolving threat landscape, the role now explicitly encompasses risk identification across identity security strategy, AI governance oversight, post-quantum cryptography readiness, and operational resilience engineering — ensuring Davies is prepared not only for today’s threats but for the emerging challenges of 2026 and beyond.
