While Brisbane-based candidates are preferred, interstate applicants may also be considered. The role can be performed predominantly from Brisbane, with any required travel to be undertaken at the consultant's own expense.

- Develop executive reporting, metrics and dashboards that support informed decision making.
- Contribute to cyber security strategy,



capability roadmaps and operational maturity initiatives.
- Drive alignment between cyber operations, governance and business objectives.

What You'll Need To Succeed

We're seeking a senior cyber professional who can operate across both technical and business environments.

You will bring:

- Extensive experience across cyber security operations functions.
- Strong knowledge of vulnerability management, threat intelligence, incident response and security monitoring.
- Experience designing or improving cyber security operating models, frameworks and governance processes.
- Strong stakeholder engagement skills with the ability to influence technical and executive audiences.
- Experience delivering cyber security uplift initiatives within large and complex enterprise environments.
- The ability to translate cyber risk and operational challenges into practical business outcomes.
- NV2 Security Clearance highly regarded but not essential.

What You'll Get In Return

- Long-term 12-month contract opportunity.
- Strategic, high-impact cyber security program.
- Chance to shape enterprise cyber operations capability and maturity.
- Exposure to senior stakeholders and organisational decision makers.
- Flexible consideration for interstate candidates.
