Blend governance and architecture with hands-on delivery-your work won't sit on a shelf.

Your new company

Join a large, enterprise-scale organisation undergoing a significant transformation of its core systems. As part of this program, a major uplift in cybersecurity capability is underway. You'll be joining a high-performing cyber team that operates across multiple business units and stakeholders. Based in Adelaide (with flexibility for Brisbane and Melbourne-based candidates), this 6-month initial contract offers the chance to contribute to meaningful change in a complex and dynamic environment-where last year's team engagement score hit 100%.

Your new role

As the Cybersecurity Governance Advisor, you'll play a pivotal role in aligning the organisation's cybersecurity posture with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework-and ensuring it's implemented effectively. This is a hands-on advisory role where you'll not only guide framework development and control assurance but also deliver artefacts, apply governance processes, and support remediation activities. You'll collaborate with senior stakeholders across multiple clubs to negotiate practical frameworks and ensure robust governance.

What you'll need to succeed

* Strong knowledge of the NIST Cybersecurity Framework and experience in framework development or auditing.
* Background in GRC, risk management, and cybersecurity governance, with the ability to deliver artefacts and controls.
* Experience working in Microsoft Azure and hybrid cloud environments, with an understanding of integration challenges in large-scale systems.
* Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISA, SABSA) highly regarded.
* Ability to influence and communicate effectively across complex stakeholder landscapes.
* 5+ years in cybersecurity roles with experience in both advisory and hands-on implementation.

Key responsibilities include

* Develop and tailor cybersecurity frameworks and artefacts based on NIST principles.
* Design and specify security controls for projects and change requests.
* Execute assurance activities such as control effectiveness tests and vulnerability scans.
* Work within Microsoft Azure and hybrid cloud environments, ensuring security controls integrate seamlessly in a complex enterprise landscape.
* Maintain architecture artefacts such as technology roadmaps and standards.
* Support incident response and remediation activities with actionable solutions.
* Stay ahead of emerging threats and trends, assessing their impact on governance and controls.

What you'll get in return

* 6-month initial contract with potential to extend.
* Competitive daily rate.
* High-impact role with visibility across multiple boards and business units.
* Flexible working arrangements and a collaborative team culture.
* Joining a team with a strong culture and proven engagement.
