ISO 27001 Implementation Advisor – Offshore Operations
About the assignment
A leading organisation in energy infrastructure is strengthening security across its offshore operations. You drive ISO 27001 certification readiness by implementing controls across 6 offshore assets and 2 interconnectors, operationalising security processes for the first time.
Your focus is pragmatic: clear process design, demonstrable evidence collection, and quality execution. You work at the intersection of IT and OT security—from cable protection systems to software access controls—collaborating with managers, control owners, and the corporate security office.
This role requires someone who speaks the language of both security frameworks and operational reality. You're a strategic discussion partner who translates ISO 27001 requirements into executable action.
Your responsibilities
- Guide managers and control owners through ISO 27001 control execution against the Statement of Applicability
- Design control structures and implementation processes, embedding them clearly within the business unit
- Draft and refine process descriptions to make security requirements practically applicable
- Coordinate evidence collection and deliver comprehensive implementation documentation per control
- Report progress and results to the Offshore Security Office and ISO Officer
- Align weekly with the ISO Officer and corporate CSO Office to maintain ISMS consistency
- Act as a trusted advisor to management on security priorities and implementation timelines
