About the role
NFU Mutual is seeking a creative and proactive member of our Risk Division team, focusing on information security and data protection training, awareness, and governance to ensure our people are informed, engaged, and aligned with the organisation’s risk management strategies and compliance requirements.
The principle focus of this role involves developing and executing training and awareness plans and materials, crafting messaging for a variety of internal channels, and coordinating communications across the business on a range of information security and data protection topics. As part of this remit, you will deliver training sessions, respond to queries from colleagues and work with our Information Security Champion network, as well as working within the team to implement phishing simulations to educate and test employees on recognising and responding to phishing threats.
Our training and awareness activities do not sit in isolation, however, and the team works collaboratively with each other and with other teams in the Division and wider business in a governance capacity to monitor and understand the effectiveness of our information security and data protection risk management strategies, which helps to inform where further training and awareness efforts may be needed. This involves coordination of regular management information collation and reporting on risk trends and compliance with policies, assessing and maintaining our inventories of data processes and platforms, and ensuring our information security charter reflects current processes against industry standards and best practice. Whilst these activities are coordinated day-to-day by another team member, your role will require an understanding of these activities, maintaining an awareness of management information insights, and a flexible approach in support of the overall remit of the team.
This role is known internally as an Information Risk Management Analyst.
