Phyllis Tuckwell is a very special place to work. Our staff make a real difference to the lives of our patients and their loved ones, providing outstanding care at a time that really matters. Our support teams are pivotal in helping deliver our vital services, ensuring ‘every day is precious’ for our patients.
We are shortly opening our new hospice building, creating a modern environment designed around patients, families, and staff. Alongside this, we are investing in our digital capability to better support care, improve efficiency, and strengthen how we work as an organisation.
We are seeking an Information Security Manager to shape how our information security is built into a new environment from the outset, rather than retrofitted later. Whilst good progress has already been made in our cyber security and information governance provision across the organisation, this exciting, new role will take the next step in managing and developing a more structured, consistent, and visible approach, seeking to embed good practice and build confidence.
This is not a purely technical or policy focused role. It will be responsible for ensuring our systems and information are safe, resilient, and used responsibly, helping our teams make secure choices in their day-to-day work, and educating staff to understand what this means in practice. The role will play an integral role in ensuring everything we do, and deliver, is secure by default and will ensure a practical, solutions focused approach to risk, helping teams move forward with confidence, building a positive security culture across the organisation.
This is a key role at an important point for the organisation. It will make a tangible impact across the work of Phyllis Tuckwell, both clinically and operationally.
The role will operate under the strategic direction of the Director of IT, Estates and Digital Transformation, while acting as the organisation’s recognised subject matter expert in cyber security and information security. They will be the trusted authority in this area, supporting teams across the organisation and providing credible assurance to senior leaders.
Key Responsibilities of the Information Security Manager will include:
About the candidate
Candidates should possess a balanced skillset across technical cyber security and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) combined with the ability to translate this into clear, organisation-wide governance and assurance. They will be comfortable with detail, whilst also providing proportionate, practical oversight at an organisational level. They should demonstrate:
Relevant qualifications or certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or Security+ are helpful.
Whilst a hospice background is not required, applicants should understand the importance of working in a people-focused, regulated environment.
We Offer:
Excellent Benefits
Career Development
A Great Place to Work
We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive culture, with the principles of fairness and equality at its core. We are an equal opportunities employer, who values and respects our employees’ unique knowledge, skills and experiences. We warmly welcome applications from all sections of the community. All appointments are made following a fair and equitable process, based on merit, job requirements and business need.
Interested?
If you are looking for a role where you can make a tangible difference, not just manage compliance, we would like to hear from you. For further information regarding the role or to arrange an informal visit please contact Graham Mayers, Director of IT, Estates and Digital Transformation. If you have any questions about the recruitment process, contact HR.
Closing date for receipt of applications: 10th May 2026.
Interviews to be held week commencing 1st June 2026.
We reserve the right to close the role ahead of the closing date should sufficient applications be received. Your early response is therefore encouraged. Please note that we do not hold a sponsor licence and therefore are unable to provide sponsorship.
