Head of Product Security

Our Future Health

We are looking to hire a new role and bring someone in as our Head of Product Security, a key leadership role within our Information Security team. In this role you will shape how Our Future Health builds secure, trusted products at national scale. You’ll lead the security engineering and architecture functions, ensuring they provide clear and pragmatic guidance to product, engineering, and wider technical teams. Your work centres on embedding secure by design thinking, strengthening how the organisation understands and manages risk, and helping teams see security as an enabler that supports delivery rather than slowing it down. You’ll also contribute hands on technical input to complex architectural decisions where your expertise adds real value.

Alongside this strategic impact, you’ll manage and develop a growing team, ensuring smooth day to day operations and a culture of continuous improvement. The role needs empathetic people leadership, exceptional stakeholder management, and the ability to influence across a fast moving, agile environment. With an engineering background and solid security architecture experience, you’ll bring the technical credibility and collaborative approach needed to guide teams, shape priorities, and drive the future direction of product security.

At Our Future Health, our mission is to transform the prevention,detectionand treatment of conditions such as dementia, cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke. We’re looking for people to join us on our journey.
