Job Details
- Diving deep into Manawa’s security landscape and comparing it with Contact’s systems and practices.
- Advising on risk and security controls, helping the business understand and navigate change.
- Supporting the development and implementation of pragmatic security frameworks.
- Collaborating across teams to ensure security is an enabler, not a blocker.
- Helping build trust and consultative relationships with stakeholders.
What you’ll bring:
- Experience in Information Security, Risk Management, or Audit – ideally in large, complex environments.
- A solid understanding of risk frameworks and how to have meaningful risk conversations.
- The ability to translate technical concepts into business language.
- Exposure to organisational change – whether you’ve led it, supported it, or observed it closely.
- Relevant certifications (e.g., CISSP, CCSP, CCSK) and cloud platform knowledge (Azure, AWS, Google Cloud, etc.).
- Bonus points if you’re familiar with OT (Operational Technology) environments or more specifically, ICS (Industrial Control Systems).
What makes this role special:
- It’s a 6-month fixed term contract focused solely on the Manawa Integration project.
- You’ll be part of a team that’s passionate, collaborative, and always learning.
- You’ll work with leaders who value EQ as much as technical skill.
