Ambitious Cybersecurity Architect wanted to drive real impact in Cybersecurity from Melbourne.
Cyber threats against large enterprises have become more coordinated and more expensive to get wrong.
This business, an established industry leader with over 250 employees, needs someone who can build the architecture that keeps pace with that.
You'd be joining a Cybersecurity function that already has structure and credibility behind it, not one starting from scratch.
Here's what you'll be doing: Design and own the security architecture across cloud, network and application layers for a large-scale enterprise environment Translate business risk into concrete technical controls, then document them so other teams can actually follow them Review new projects and vendor proposals for security gaps before they become expensive problems Lead threat modelling sessions with engineering and infrastructure teams based in Melbourne and beyond Set and maintain security frameworks and best practices that the wider organisation builds against Work with incident response and compliance teams when something does go wrong, and help make sure it doesn't happen twice Here are the skills you'll need: Several years in a senior Cybersecurity Architect or equivalent architecture-focused role Strong grasp of cloud security (AWS, Azure or GCP), identity management and network segmentation Experience with recognised frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST or the Essential Eight Confidence presenting technical risk to non-technical stakeholders, clearly and without jargon A methodical approach.
Enterprise environments punish shortcuts Relevant certifications (CISSP, CISM or similar) are a strong plus Key perks and benefits: A$90,000 to A$129,000, depending on experience Hybrid working, based out of Melbourne Private medical and dental insurance Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses A comprehensive benefits package and genuine structured career development Why pursue a career in Cybersecurity?
Demand for skilled Cybersecurity Architects keeps climbing as enterprises hold more sensitive data and face more sophisticated attacks.
Melbourne has grown into one of the stronger hubs for this work in the region, with no shortage of large organisations needing people who can think ahead of the threat rather than just react to it.
Get good at this and you'll rarely be short of options.
This Cybersecurity Architect opportunity is brought to you by The Opportunity Hub UK.
