  • Proactively threat hunt within the Origin environment by reviewing vulnerabilities, assessing control gaps against current threats, and analysing security logs for anomalous or risky activities.
  • Regularly reviews threat and vulnerability advisories from various sources (e.g. ACSC) and, where a high priority response is required across the organisation, lead the engagement with Major Incident Management team.
  • Mentor junior team members in security operations and technical leadership domains, while identifying opportunities for professional development and upskilling to promote knowledge sharing within the team.
  • Partner with key stakeholders, to provide and share strategic advice and insights to enhance security solutions regarding across the organisation's systems, driving adoption and adherence to policy, standards and guidelines.
  • Influence Origin's security architecture, engineering, and operational processes by providing direct and constructive feedback based on day-to-day observations.
