Cybersecurity Operations Specialist

Join a leading technology organisation as a Cybersecurity Operations Specialist driving large-scale digital transformation and smart nation initiatives. An opportunity to work in an organisation that builds advanced solutions in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, Application Development, Smart City solutions, Digital Infrastructure, and Cybersecurity.

• Lead the design and implementation of a unified cybersecurity governance and operational resilience framework across a multi-agency environment.

• Standardise incident response playbooks and provide oversight during high-severity security incidents.
• Establish clear governance and crisis management structures to support decisive leadership during incidents.
• Strengthen operational readiness through advanced tabletop exercises, resilience testing, and capability assessments.
• Oversee centralised monitoring, improve asset visibility, and guide specialised detection strategies for complex environments (including cloud and OT).
• Implement robust vulnerability and attack surface management practices across on-prem, cloud, and OT systems.
• Champion a culture of resilience, business continuity preparedness, and “assumed breach” thinking across stakeholders.
  
  What We’re Looking For
• 8–10 years of experience in Cybersecurity Operations, SOC leadership, or Incident Response.
• Proven track record managing or overseeing high-severity security incidents.
• Experience operating within complex hybrid environments (on-prem, cloud, OT).
• Strong expertise in incident response, digital forensics, threat intelligence, and vulnerability management (CVE/CVSS).
• Hands-on experience with SIEM, SOAR, XDR, EDR, and cloud security monitoring tools.
• Ability to assess exploitability and prioritise remediation effectively.
• Strong crisis leadership, stakeholder management, and strategic foresight.
• Relevant certifications (e.g., GCIH, GCFA, CHFI, CISSP) are advantageous.
