About Us
We are Bridge Staffing Agency, a dedicated recruitment partner committed to connecting exceptional talent with organizations where they can make a lasting impact. We take pride in building collaborative relationships and tailoring our search solutions to your professional goals, your pace, and your people.
The Opportunity
We are looking to speak with experienced Security Solution Architects to support a large, dynamic portfolio of business and technology projects.
This is not a role for someone who works purely from theoretical standards. We need a pragmatic, hands-on architect who can quickly grasp new challenges, build trusted relationships, and provide practical, risk-based guidance that enables secure delivery without slowing business momentum.
Key Responsibilities
Provide expert security solution architecture across a complex and diverse portfolio of change programmes.
Review and assure technical designs and solutions, ensuring robust security posture and risk management.
Deliver pragmatic, risk-based security advice on business and technology projects.
Engage and collaborate with stakeholders at all levels, from technical engineers through to senior leadership.
Balance security requirements seamlessly against operational needs and business goals.
Manage multiple concurrent projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
Embed security effectively across both technology and business change initiatives.
What We’re Looking For
Proven commercial experience operating as a Security Solution Architect or Senior Security Consultant.
Strong background providing security architecture across complex, multi-faceted change programmes.
A pragmatic, hands-on delivery mindset rather than a purely theoretical or standards-led approach.
Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills across all organizational levels.
Ability to start within a few weeks.
