In this dynamic position, you will evaluate both physical-cyber security measures across client facilities, identifying weaknesses in their security posture and recommending remediation. This role bridges the gap between physical security controls and cybersecurity defences to create holistic protection strategies.

You will conduct thorough on-site security assessments of client facilities, examining physical measures to protect network and IT infrastructure, and evaluate cyber-physical control systems. You will assist clients by performing gap analysis against authority standards and regulatory requirements and develop reports with prioritized findings and actionable recommendations. You will be called on to create customized security roadmaps and implementation plans for clients, communicate with stakeholders explaining security vulnerabilities and proposed solutions, and support the organization with incident response actions and post-breach assessment activities.

You should have a tertiary education in an IT-related discipline, preferably with a focus on cyber-security. You should possess good writing and verbal communication skills, problem-solving and analytical skills. A passion for IT/cyber is essential. Cyber-security professional accreditation such as CISSP, and prior relevant work experience in cyber/IT related fields would be advantageous.
