AI Security Architect

Polo Works are currently recruiting this role on behalf of our parent company Marco Group.

We are looking for an AI Security Architect to own the security posture of AI tooling across the Marco Group, covering approved platforms such as Microsoft Copilot and Anthropic Claude in their full capability set, AI capabilities embedded within existing business systems, AI-assisted software development, and third-party or vendor AI usage. This is a newly created, architecture-level role that will define how the Group adopts AI safely, at pace, and in line with regulatory expectations.

Working closely with the Group Head of Information Security, the AI Security Architect will design and maintain the security controls, risk assessment framework and governance model for AI tooling, and will act as the Group's technical authority on generative AI risk – including data leakage, prompt injection, agentic/tool-use risk and model access control. The role will also support engineering teams in embedding secure practices where AI-assisted development tools are used, and will contribute AI-specific risk assessment to vendor and third-party due diligence.

This role will report into the Group Head of Information Security.
