• Support audit remediation, control testing, and risk reduction activities;

• Develop and deliver clear, actionable security recommendations and documentation; and

• Mentor and support team members, contributing to a growing IDAM capability.

• Background in security consulting, advisory, or architecture-style roles;

• Proven ability to engage with stakeholders from engineers through to C-level;

• Strong knowledge and understanding of security frameworks, industry standards and regulatory requirements, including NIST, CPS234, CPS230, Critical Infrastructure and ATO obligations;

• Experience delivering practical outcomes (not just recommendations);

• Exposure to CIAM platforms (e.g. Ping, Oracle or similar);

• Strong communication skills with the ability to translate technical concepts into business outcomes; and

• A pragmatic approach with the ability to operate at pace and manage ambiguity.
