Senior Manager, Technology Risk and Cyber Security — Perth
You'll lead cyber security, technology risk and resilience engagements for clients across Western Australia, with an established national practice behind you and genuine influence over how the local capability grows.
This is a build role as much as a delivery role. The Perth team is expanding, and you'll help shape what it offers and who sits in it.
The essentials
Perth based, hybrid
Client: an international advisory firm, growing its technology risk and cyber security capability in Perth off the back of a well established national risk advisory practice
What you'll actually do
Lead complex engagements end to end: risk assessments, IT audits, cyber maturity reviews, control assurance, governance reviews and operational resilience work, including technical oversight and quality review of what goes out the door
Own the commercials on your portfolio: scope, budget, resourcing, timelines, billing and delivery risk
Turn findings into practical mitigation plans, improvement roadmaps and reporting that senior stakeholders can act on rather than file
Build and deepen client relationships across the WA market, spotting needs early and shaping opportunities with Partners and Directors
Coach and develop the team, covering resource planning, utilisation, performance development and review of their output
Help design and improve the service lines themselves as the practice scales
What you'll need




Track record leading cyber security, technology risk, IT audit, control assurance or resilience engagements, from consulting, professional services or an in-house risk function
Working knowledge of the frameworks Australian clients are measured against, for example the ACSC Essential Eight, ISO *****, NIST CSF, APRA CPS 234 and sector standards such as the Australian energy sector framework
Commercial engagement management: you've run scope, budget, resourcing and quality on your own book of work
Experience developing client relationships and converting them into new work
Experience managing, coaching and quality reviewing other people's engagement output
Nice to have:
Certifications such as CISA, CISM, CRISC, CISSP, SABSA, ISO ***** lead auditor or implementer
IT general controls experience supporting financial audit
A recognised project delivery credential such as PRINCE2
What's in it for you
A capability that is being built rather than maintained, so your input on service design and hiring genuinely counts
National expertise to draw on while operating in a smaller local team
Supported ongoing career development in your specialism
If you meet most but not all of the essentials, we'd still like to hear from you. If you need any adjustments during the application process, tell us and we'll make them.
