​

ABOUT THE ROLE:

As Fractional ISO Lead at Trust Keith, you will help us build a practical ISO 27001 certification-readiness offer that helps customers strengthen security, governance and trust without drowning in unnecessary complexity.

This is not a traditional ISO consultancy role. We want to help customers bring data protection, information security and governance together through one joined-up framework that is practical, proportionate and built for real businesses.

You will work closely with our Lead DPO and wider team to shape the offer from the ground up. That means building the methodology, templates and delivery model, supporting early sales and discovery, and helping us bring the first pilot engagements to life.

You will help create an ISO 27001 implementation approach designed for startups, scale-ups and growth-stage organisations. This will include reusable templates, assessment tools, evidence guidance, delivery playbooks and a clear pathway for helping customers move from “where do we even start?” to certification-ready.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone who has deep ISO 27001 experience, loves making complex things feel simple, and wants to help build a differentiated service that customers will actually enjoy using.

​

ABOUT YOU:

• Strong hands-on ISO 27001 implementation experience, including ISMS design and implementation.
• Evidence of leading at least 5 successful ISO 27001 implementations.
• ISO 27001 Lead Implementer and Lead Auditor certifications.
• Experience supporting organisations through certification, surveillance and recertification audits.
• Experience conducting ISO 27001 gap assessments.
• Experience working across startups, scale-ups, SMEs or other fast-moving organisations.
• Experience creating ISO 27001 implementation frameworks, methodologies, templates or delivery playbooks.
• Strong understanding of practical ISO 27001 delivery, including risk assessments, Statements of Applicability, internal audits and management reviews.
• A practical, proportionate and commercially minded approach to ISO 27001.
• Collaborative, low ego and comfortable working closely with a Lead DPO and product team.
• Able to balance certification requirements with business realities.
• High agency, action-oriented and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.
• CISSP, CISM or equivalent.
• Project management experience.
• Experience building or scaling an ISO 27001 consulting practice.
• Experience working alongside product or service design teams.
• Ops background and strong attention to detail.

Alignment with our values:

Brave: You’re willing to challenge the status quo, share an unpopular opinion, and deliver and receive honest feedback.
Diligent: You make yourself accountable by default, following through on what you say you’re going to do.
Empathetic: You’re able to put yourself in the customers’ and other team members’ shoes; everyone is human, after all.
Personal & Professional Growth Mindset: You’re ambitious, want to learn, grow, and become the best version of yourself.
Quirky: You don’t take yourself too seriously. We know we’re building a company in an ‘unsexy’ industry but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun! We’re called Trust “Keith” because data compliance is often associated with individuals like “Keith” [credit to Family Guy!]

​

WHAT WE OFFER:

• Fractional contractor engagement.
• Expected initial commitment of around 3 days per month for the first 3 months.
• Potential delivery-focused support over the following 6–9 months, depending on customer demand.
• Flexible, remote-first working.
• Opportunity to help shape a new service line from the ground up.
• Close collaboration with our Lead DPO, Product, CS, Revenue, CEO and Fractional DPO teams.
• The chance to build something practical, differentiated and genuinely useful for customers.
• A fast-paced, energised culture where you can make a real impact.
• A team that cares about doing excellent work without making compliance feel painful.
