The Manager, Cyber Risk supports IMCO’s cyber risk program by coordinating risk assessments, managing third‑party security reviews, and helping ensure adherence to IMCO policies and standards. The role partners with IT & Data, Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), Legal/Compliance, and business teams to identify, assess, and track cyber risks, providing actionable insights and clear communication.

As a Member of Our Team, You Will be Responsible For:

Risk Assessments & Tracking

  • Execute and document cyber risk assessments for projects, applications, infrastructure and material changes (using defined methodologies).

  • Conduct cloud security risk assessments across SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS solutions, including shared responsibility considerations, data protection, identity, and resilience risks.

  • Assess cyber risks associated with emerging technologies (e.g., AI/GenAI, new data platforms, automation tools) and advise on appropriate controls and risk treatments.

  • Maintain entries in the cyber risk register; track remediation actions with accountable owners and follow up on due dates.

Third‑Party Security Reviews

  • Perform security due diligence for new vendors and periodic reviews for existing vendors/critical fourth parties.

  • Evaluate vendor and cloud provider control environments (e.g., SOC reports, ISO certifications, architecture summaries) and identify residual risk.

  • Record findings, recommend risk treatments, and escalate material issues in line with risk appetite and thresholds.

Policy & Standards Support

  • Support the currency of cybersecurity policies, standards, and guidelines through drafting updates and stakeholder review.

  • Coordinate and document exceptions/deviations and risk acceptance requests with clear expiry and compensating controls.

Control Testing & Assurance

  • Assist with control self‑assessments and collection of evidence for internal/external audits and attestations (e.g., SOC 2).

  • Support assurance activities related to cloud and third‑party controls, including tracking gaps and remediation actions to closure.

  • Track audit/assessment action items to closure and provide status updates to leaders.

Reporting & Communication

  • Prepare concise dashboards and reports (KRIs/KPIs, risk themes, third-party risk trends, remediation status) for management and governance forums.

  • Translate technical, cloud, vendor, emerging risks into business‑friendly summaries with clear impact, likelihood, and recommended next steps.

Awareness & Engagement

  • Promote security awareness to top risk themes.

  • Support readiness activities (e.g., tabletop logistics and follow‑ups, risk workshops).

  • Respond to risk‑related inquiries from project teams and vendor managers with timely, practical guidance.

What do you need to succeed?

  • 5–6 years of experience in information security, IT risk, or related roles (financial services/investment management is an asset).

  • Working knowledge of cyber risk frameworks and controls (e.g., NIST CSF/800‑53, ISO 27001/27002/27004/27005) and third-party risk management practices.

  • Hands‑on experience conducting technology and cloud risk assessments, documenting issues, and tracking remediation to closure.

  • Familiarity with cloud service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and shared responsibility concepts

  • Comfort interpreting audit/assessment requests and assembling clear, accurate evidence packages.

  • Strong analytical, organisational, and stakeholder communication skills; able to explain risk in plain language.

  • Undergraduate degree in a relevant field; security/risk certifications (e.g., CRISC, CISSP, CISM) are assets.
