Intelance is a UK-based technology and compliance consultancy that provides on-demand enterprise architecture, cybersecurity compliance, and AI strategy services. Since 2019 it has helped organisations of all sizes design scalable enterprise architectures, achieve certifications such as Cyber Essentials and ISO 27001, and apply AI to optimise operations like supply chains. Intelance positions itself as a partner for digital transformation, offering enterprise architects, cybersecurity specialists, and AI practitioners to support audit-readiness and technology-driven business value.

📋 Description

• Lead independent security architecture reviews and assurance for large, complex and regulated organisations. • Assess cloud, hybrid and on-premises architectures across identity, networks, applications, platforms and data. • Carry out threat modelling and identify credible attack paths, design weaknesses and control gaps. • Judge whether proposed or alternative controls provide equivalent, proportionate protection. • Review high-level and detailed designs and challenge unsupported assumptions. • Advise boards, executives and technical teams on secure-by-design decisions and trade-offs. • Produce clear, defensible, client-ready architecture findings and assurance reports. • Complete scheme-specific training and participate in internal quality reviews where required.

🎯 Requirements

• Current UK Cyber Security Council (UKCSC) professional registration in Security Architecture (Secure System Architecture and Design) at Principal or Chartered level. This is mandatory and will be verified. • Substantial experience as a practising security architect in large, complex or regulated organisations. • Strong command of secure-by-design principles, threat modelling and architecture assurance. • Practical experience across cloud, hybrid infrastructure, identity, networks, applications and data security. • Excellent written English and the ability to explain technical risk to non-technical decision-makers. • SABSA, TOGAF, CISSP, CCSP and cloud certifications are welcome but do not replace the UKCSC registration requirement. • You must be based in the UK, able to attend UK client sites when agreed, and able to contract through a limited company or another compliant arrangement.

🏖️ Benefits

• Senior, independent security architecture and assurance assignments. • Flexible associate working based on your availability. • Direct access to Intelance leadership. • Work alongside experienced architects, governance and risk advisors and technical assessors. • Clear scopes, templates and quality-review arrangements. • Potential inclusion in Intelance proposals and associate credentials, subject to agreement.
