Broad cyber engineering and incident response ownership
Circa $180k package including super, with future leadership potential
Join a national professional services firm investing heavily in cyber security and technology uplift.
This senior role blends hands-on security engineering, incident response, vulnerability management and project delivery across a broad enterprise setting.
You will work closely with the Head of Security and IT Operations, help strengthen operational maturity, and become a trusted escalation point for internal teams, partners and clients.
For the right person, there is scope to progress into cyber operations leadership over time.
About the role
Work across cyber security operations, incident response, vulnerability management and the ongoing improvement of security technologies and controls.
Act as a senior escalation point for security incidents, working closely with an outsourced SOC, technology vendors and internal teams.
Support the implementation and uplift of platforms across SIEM, EDR, email security, privileged access, application control and vulnerability management.
Provide practical cyber security input into technology projects, including control requirements, implementation checklists and remediation activities.
Improve operational documentation, processes, reporting and control evidence supporting frameworks such as ISO *****, Essential Eight, ISM and SOC 2.




Engage confidently with senior leaders, partners, clients and technical stakeholders, with occasional support required for critical incidents or evening changes.
About you
You have at least six years of cyber security experience, with strong hands-on depth across security engineering and incident response.
You can investigate, respond and remediate rather than simply escalating tickets, coordinating vendors or providing high-level architectural advice.
You have experience across technologies such as SIEM, EDR, vulnerability scanning, email security, application control and privileged access management.
You communicate professionally with both technical and non-technical stakeholders and are comfortable engaging senior executives, partners and clients.
You are an energetic self-starter who improves documentation, formalises processes and takes ownership without needing constant direction.
You hold a relevant cyber security certification, with CISSP, CISM, CRISC or similar credentials highly regarded.
Previous infrastructure or systems engineering experience would also be valuable.
This is an opportunity to take on a broad senior position, work closely with a supportive and technically capable leader, and help shape the next stage of a growing cyber security function.
