Cyber Security Engineer – Canberra, ACT

Approach is partnering with a highly respected Canberra-based private sector organisation to find an experienced and Cyber Security Engineer ready for their next step.

  • Create clear, executive-ready reports from logs, timelines, and other data sources.
  • Standardise and improve security toolsets, bringing consistency and efficiency to operations.
  • Identify task ownership, gaps, and opportunities for automation or escalation to guide resourcing decisions.
  • Collaborate with senior engineers on audit and remediation projects, adding technical depth and solutions.
Qualifications
  • 12+ months of hands-on SOC experience (we're looking for proven capability, not a helpdesk step-up).
  • Strong knowledge across Microsoft 365, Azure Security Centre, Azure, and/or AWS security best practices.
  • Experience with vulnerability management tools such as Tenable or Nessus.
  • Familiarity with SIEM tools like Splunk or Azure Sentinel.
  • Skilled in producing security reports that bridge technical depth with executive readability.
  • Experience setting up or standardising security tools or processes.
  • Bonus: MSP experience, plus working knowledge of Windows Server (2008–2022), Active Directory, Exchange, SQL, and networking fundamentals (CCNA or equivalent).
Why Apply?

  • Career progression and ongoing professional development opportunities.
  • A team that truly promotes work/life balance and flexibility.
