A core responsibility of this role will be to lead, build and mature the Bank's cyber insider threat program, with an aim to strengthen the Bank's overall posture against this risk.
The RBA's unique position as central bank means you will gain exposure to an exciting and fast-paced environment, sitting at the intersection of government, critical infrastructure and the financial sector. You will have the opportunity to apply your security expertise to new and diverse problems to protect an organisation that has real-world impacts on all Australians.
About the team

The CTIC delivers solutions to combat complex cyber threats and provides actionable threat intelligence to defend the RBA. The CTIC also serves as a hub for data processing, analysis and intelligence sharing.
There is a strong culture for collaboration, innovation and celebrating personal successes. The team is constantly looking to improve and welcomes fresh perspectives and ideas.
About the role
* Provide expert technical leadership and subject matter expertise in cyber threat intelligence and insider threat domains.
* Lead the cyber insider threat program, including the development of standards, procedures and processes to detect, prevent and respond to insider threats, while ensuring alignment with the overall cyber security strategy.
* Build trust and strong cross-functional relationships across the Bank (e.g. with Physical Security, People Department, Legal, Fraud and Risk) to achieve common goals and outcomes.
* You will apply your subject matter expertise within a team environment to collect against, research, analyse and build a deep technical understanding of the nature of cyber threats relevant to the Australian Government, Central Bank, the Financial Sector and Critical Infrastructure.
* You will produce and disseminate contextualised, relevant and timely strategic, operational and tactical (technical) cyber threat intelligence products and services to internal and external stakeholders, with the aim of reducing cyber risk, and enabling the effective prioritisation of security work. This may include intelligence briefings/presentations, short and long form written reports, technical analysis, dashboards, security alerts, curated threat feeds, or other products designed to meet stakeholder requirements.
* You will represent the RBA at various domestic and international security forums, conferences and events, remotely and in person, and contribute to establishing the RBA as a key thought leader and contributor within the space.
* You may be required to mentor and/or manage less experienced staff to develop their skills and achieve organisational outcomes.
