About the assignment
A leading organisation is strengthening its security posture through multiple concurrent initiatives. You oversee the planning, execution and closure of security projects—from infrastructure upgrades to process implementations.

- Monitor progress against milestones; identify and escalate risks, dependencies and blockers early
- Coordinate across security, IT operations and business teams to maintain momentum and resolve conflicts
- Manage change control and ensure stakeholder buy-in for security-related process or technology shifts
- Document deliverables, lessons learned and project closure; report metrics to leadership
- Track budget and resource utilisation; justify variance and optimise spend
