Cyber Strategy & Maturity Uplift Lead

Location: Brisbane (flexible hybrid options)

Salary: $ Superannuation per Hour

Length of contract: 12 month contract with high possibility of extension

Are you an experienced cyber security leader ready to shape the strategic direction of a major utilities organisation? This is your chance to play a pivotal role in uplifting cyber maturity across both IT and OT environments.

About the Role We're looking for a senior cyber professional to act as a strategic proxy for the CISO, driving a multi-stream cyber maturity uplift program. You'll ensure that all uplift initiatives remain tightly aligned with business objectives, risk appetite, and regulatory requirements.

This role provides continuous oversight of cyber security strategy and governance, monitoring progress against industry-recognised frameworks such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0 and the Australian Essential Eight. You'll lead quarterly self-assessments, produce executive-level reporting, and simplify engagement across multiple cyber streams.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide strategic oversight and act as the CISO's delegate across cyber uplift programs in IT and OT.
  • Monitor and report against maturity targets including NIST CSF 2.0 and ASD Essential Eight.
  • Lead quarterly Essential Eight self-assessments and deliver clear, executive-level progress reports.
  • Identify and address gaps or drift between uplift activities and strategic objectives.
  • Consolidate cyber engagement into a single strategic channel, reducing duplication and complexity.
  • Influence and guide stakeholders to ensure program deliverables remain risk-aligned and pragmatic.

About You

You're a seasoned cyber security leader with:

  • 10+ years' experience in cyber security technology leadership, governance or strategy.
  • Strong knowledge of NIST CSF 2.0, ASD Essential Eight and the SOCI Act.
  • Experience leading cyber maturity uplift programs in complex, multi-stream environments.
  • The ability to translate technical progress into clear, business-aligned reporting.
  • A collaborative and influential style with the confidence to act as the CISO's strategic proxy.

Industry certifications such as CISSP, CISM, GIAC, or GCFA and experience in critical infrastructure (water, energy, transport) will be highly regarded.

Why Join ? This is an opportunity to lead strategic cyber uplift in a critical infrastructure environment and make a real impact on the security of essential services for the community.
