Cyber Security Technical Lead

Cyber Security Technical Lead (Hands-On)
Adelaide, SA | Permanent Full-Time

Talent International is proud to be supporting Journey Beyond in the search for an experienced Cyber Security Technical Lead to join their Adelaide-based technology team.

This is an exciting opportunity for a highly hands-on cyber security professional who wants broader ownership while remaining close to the technology. The role is expected to be approximately 80% hands-on, with technical capability and implementation experience prioritised over extensive people-management experience.

About Journey Beyond

Journey Beyond is one of Australia's leading experiential tourism groups, bringing together a diverse portfolio of iconic travel and tourism experiences across rail journeys, touring, cruising, lodges, attractions and dining.

With operations spanning multiple locations and businesses, Journey Beyond provides a complex and varied technology environment where this role can have genuine Group-wide impact.

What You'll Be Doing

• Hands-on implementation and improvement of cyber security controls and initiatives.
• Manage vulnerability identification, remediation, threat detection and incident response.
• Strengthen security across network, application and cloud environments.
• Contribute to and execute the Group's cyber security strategy and roadmap.
• Undertake PCI DSS reviews, cyber risk assessments, security assurance and third-party security reviews.
• Embed security-by-design across technology projects and platforms.
• Provide cyber security advice and reporting to senior stakeholders.
• Mentor and provide technical guidance to the existing Cyber Security team.

What We're Looking For

We're particularly interested in candidates who have progressed through a technical cyber security/security engineering background and still enjoy being hands-on.

You'll ideally bring:

• Strong hands-on experience across cyber security engineering and security operations.
• Experience with vulnerability management and remediation, threat detection and incident response.
• Strong understanding of network, application and cloud security, along with security architecture.
• Experience personally implementing, configuring and improving security controls and technologies.
• Knowledge of Essential Eight, ISO 27001 and NIST, with PCI DSS experience highly regarded.
• Ability to communicate technical security risks to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Ability to operate autonomously, take ownership and drive security improvements.
• Previous team leadership or mentoring experience is advantageous; however, deep technical capability is the priority.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This isn't a traditional management role where you'll move away from the technology. Journey Beyond is specifically seeking someone who wants to remain technically hands-on while gaining broader ownership and influence across an enterprise cyber security function.

Based at Journey Beyond's Head Office on North Terrace, Adelaide, you'll have the opportunity to directly contribute to the implementation and ongoing maturity of cyber security across a unique and diverse group of businesses.

If you're currently working as a Senior Cyber Security Engineer, Cyber Security Lead, Security Engineering Lead, Senior Security Consultant or hands-on Cyber Security Manager and are ready for broader ownership, we'd be keen to hear from you.
