About the Role:

The Team Lead – Cybersecurity Compliance, GRC
& VAPT Audit Management will serve as the primary owner of Globals'
external -facing cybersecurity audit and compliance practice. This is a
leadership role with dual accountability: managing and mentoring a VAPT -capable
audit team, and owning the end -to -end delivery of Information Security audits,
GRC engagements, and regulatory compliance assessments for clients spanning
enterprise IT, BFSI, defence supply chain, and critical information
infrastructure sectors.

 

The role requires deep fluency in Indian
regulatory frameworks — including the IT Act 2000, CERT -In Directions, and
NCIIPC guidelines — alongside hands -on proficiency in ISO/IEC 27001 audit
execution. The ideal candidate is not expected to personally conduct VAPT
assessments but must be capable of interpreting VAPT findings, translating them
into boardroom -ready compliance reports, and directing the technical team's
audit workflow with authority.


Responsibilities:


A. ISO 27001 Audit Leadership

  • Plan, manage, and close
    end -to -end ISO/IEC 27001 external and internal audit engagements — covering
    scope definition, Statement of Applicability (SoA) review, control testing,
    evidence evaluation, and audit report preparation.

  • Conduct gap assessments, risk
    treatment plan reviews, and readiness evaluations aligned to ISO/IEC 27001:2022
    Annex A controls.

  • Lead Stage 1 (Documentation
    Review) and Stage 2 (Implementation Audit) activities, coordinating with client
    stakeholders and certification bodies.

  • Prepare and issue
    Non -Conformance Reports (NCRs), Observations, and Corrective Action Plans
    (CAPAs) with clear remediation guidance.

  • Maintain audit programme
    documentation including audit plans, checklists, working papers, and formal
    audit reports to professional CB -grade standards.

 

B. GRC – Governance, Risk & Compliance
Engagements

  • Lead IT Security Posture
    Assessments (ISPA) and risk -based control evaluations for enterprise clients,
    producing structured GRC reports with risk registers and treatment roadmaps.

  • Design and implement GRC
    control frameworks tailored to client operating environments — covering policy
    governance, asset management, access control, incident management, and vendor
    risk.

  • Coordinate compliance gap
    analyses against multiple frameworks simultaneously — ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR,
    HIPAA, and sector -specific mandates — and produce consolidated compliance
    dashboards.

  • Manage compliance automation
    tool workflows (Sprinto, Drata, Vanta, OneTrust, or equivalent) to track
    evidence collection, control status, and audit readiness.


C. CERT -In & Regulatory Reporting
(India -Specific)

  • Own the end -to -end process for
    CERT -In incident reporting for clients under the CERT -In Directions 2022 —
    including 6 -hour and 24 -hour mandatory reporting workflows, log retention
    compliance, and NTP synchronisation advisory.

  • Prepare and submit structured
    incident reports, vulnerability disclosures, and advisory responses to CERT -In
    on behalf of clients as authorised representative.

  • Advise clients on NCIIPC
    compliance obligations under the National Cyber Security Policy for operators
    of Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) — including sector -specific
    security guidelines for Power, Telecom, Finance, and Government.

  • Conduct compliance readiness
    reviews against the IT Act 2000, IT (Amendment) Act 2008, and associated Rules
    including the IT (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive
    Personal Data or Information) Rules 2011.

  • Support DPDP Act 2023 (Digital
    Personal Data Protection Act) compliance advisory as it pertains to client data
    handling and security obligations.

  • Liaise with regulatory bodies
    including CERT -In, NCIIPC, MEITY, RBI CISO advisories, and SEBI cybersecurity
    circulars where applicable.

 

D. VAPT Team Management & Report
Oversight

  •  Lead and manage a team of VAPT
    engineers and security analysts — assigning engagements, reviewing scope
    documents, and ensuring delivery quality and timeliness.

  • Review and validate VAPT
    reports (Network PT, Web App PT, API Security Testing, Thick Client, Wireless,
    and Cloud Security Reviews) for technical accuracy, risk rating calibration
    (CVSS), and narrative clarity before client submission.

  • Translate complex technical
    VAPT findings into executive -level security risk summaries suitable for client
    CISOs, Boards, and Audit Committees.

  • Define and enforce
    engagement -specific Rules of Engagement (RoE), scoping documents, and test
    plans in coordination with the client and technical team.

  • Drive remediation verification
    cycles — scheduling re -testing post -fix and issuing closure certificates with
    updated report revisions.

  • Maintain quality assurance over
    deliverables — ensuring OWASP, PTES, OSSTMM, and NIST SP 800 -115 methodology
    alignment where applicable.

 

E. Client & Stakeholder Management

  • Act as the primary
    client -facing point of contact for all cybersecurity audit and compliance
    engagements — managing expectations, presenting findings, and driving closure.

  • Conduct executive debrief
    sessions, boardroom presentations, and risk workshops with client leadership
    including CISOs, CTOs, Compliance Officers, and Legal teams.

  •  Manage multi -client engagement
    calendars, coordinating internal VAPT team bandwidth with client timelines and
    regulatory deadlines.

  •  Build long -term client
    relationships, identifying opportunities to expand compliance and security
    advisory scope.

  •  Sound understanding of DPDP Act
    2023 implications for cybersecurity and data handling compliance.

    testing, NCR issuance, and formal report writing.

    etc.).

  • ISO 27001 Lead Auditor

VAPT Management Skills

  • Ability to review, critique,
    and sign off on VAPT reports across domains — without necessarily conducting
    the assessments personally.

  • Sufficient technical
    understanding of common vulnerability classes (OWASP Top 10, CVEs, CVSS
    scoring, network attack surfaces) to validate findings and challenge
    assumptions.

  • Experience managing or
    coordinating a team of penetration testers or security analysts in a delivery
    context.

 

Preferred Qualification

  • ISO/IEC 42001 (AI Management
    System) awareness or audit experience is a strong advantage, given Globals
    ITES's AI governance practice.

    valued: ISC2 CC, CISA, CISSP, CEH, CompTIA Security+, ISO 27701 Lead Auditor,
    or ISO 9001 Lead Auditor.

    frameworks: SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, GDPR, PCI -DSS, or NIST CSF.

  • Familiarity with OT/ICS
    security frameworks (IEC 62443, NERC CIP) is a plus, given Globals' defence and
    critical infrastructure client base.

  •  Prior exposure to government or
    defence sector compliance engagements in India (e.g. DRDO, DPSUs, PSUs) is
    advantageous.

  •  B.Tech / B.E. in Computer
    Science, Information Technology, or a related discipline. MBA or post -graduate

  • Meritocratic growth path into a
    CISO advisory or Practice Head role.

  •  International exposure through
    Globals' operations in the Middle East and Europe, including The Hague,
