Cyber Security Awareness Specialist

Senior Security Awareness Specialist

About the opportunity

Cyber risk is as much a people challenge as a technology one, and this role sits right at that intersection. You'll join the cyber security function of one of Australia's largest ASX-listed consumer businesses, helping shape a security culture across a large and complex enterprise. This is a hands-on, high-visibility role where your campaigns, training and relationships directly change how thousands of people think about and respond to cyber risk.

The role

• Design and deliver engaging security awareness, communication and training programs that educate, influence and engage team members across the business
• Plan and run a year-round campaign calendar, including targeted phishing simulations, and measure and report on results
• Partner with developers and technical teams to promote secure coding practices and embed security into the development lifecycle
• Work with senior leaders, IT, digital and communications teams to shape security policies, standards and key messaging
• Build and grow a network of Security Awareness champions across the organisation

What you'll bring

• 3+ years of experience in organisational learning and change management, with a track record of creating training and engagement programs for diverse audiences
• 3+ years of experience in IT or cyber security roles, with a solid grasp of core security concepts, application security, cloud and web architectures
• Exceptional written and verbal communication, able to translate security concepts for both technical and non-technical audiences
• Strong stakeholder skills, with the ability to build relationships, negotiate and influence at all levels
• Project management experience, comfortable planning and running a complex, ongoing program and reporting on metrics

Nice to have: familiarity with application development processes, and knowledge of frameworks such as NIST and CIS.

Culture

• Reports into the head of Cyber Business partnering and engagement, working closely with the wider cyber security team
• A collaborative environment, with day-to-day partnership across security, IT, digital and development teams, and communications
• Values-led: the team cares about its people, listens and learns, and puts integrity first

What's on offer

• The chance to run a genuinely enterprise-wide awareness program, not just a tick-box exercise
• A career pathway into wider cyber security or organisational change roles
