Job Description

We are seeking a Security Operations Technical Lead to join our Cyber Security team. This role is responsible for the technical delivery of day-to-day security operations, including incident response, escalation handling, and the management of core cyber defence platforms.

This is a hands-on role requiring advanced technical capability. The successful candidate will act as a technical escalation point, mentor team members, and ensure the ongoing resilience of our security operations.

What You'll Do
  • Lead and prioritise day-to-day security operations, including incident response, monitoring, ticket escalations, and workload distribution.
  • Own and tune enterprise security tools (SIEM, EDR, PAM, Email gateway, cloud security platforms).
  • Act as the primary escalation point for complex incidents and investigations.
  • Maintain and improve operational runbooks, playbooks, and reporting.
  • Work closely with our SOC partner to ensure 24/7 detection and response coverage.
  • Act as a bridge between Security and IT Operations, helping translate security priorities into operational actions and gaining buy-in from technical peers.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives by identifying gaps, proposing solutions, and ensuring lessons learned from incidents feed back into processes and tools.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to security engineers and analysts, fostering skill development and knowledge sharing.
Qualifications

What You'll Bring

  • 5+ years' experience in cybersecurity operations or engineering.
  • Demonstrated expertise in incident response, detection engineering, and BAU security operations.
  • Hands-on experience with enterprise security platforms (SIEM, EDR, PAM, DLP, CASB, cloud-native tools).
  • Strong knowledge of modern attack techniques (MITRE ATT&CK, threat actor TTPs).
  • Experience operating within a mature, enterprise level security department.
  • Relevant certifications are highly regarded (e.g., GCIH, GCIA, OSCP, Azure/AWS Security, CISSP).
  • Team leadership or mentoring experience is desirable but not essential — technical depth is key.
  • Australia Citizenship or Permanent Residency required.
Additional Information

Why you'll love it here:

  • Technical leadership within a growing cyber security team
  • Work with modern security platforms and a strong SOC partner.
  • Work somewhere serious about cybersecurity done right.
  • A culture that values continuous improvement, learning, and knowledge sharing.
  • Great balance of working from home and office collaboration.
