Cyber Technical Specialist - Readiness

You’re open to a change of direction and a new challenge.

You bring structure, mitigation and education to our organisation. Our records and datasets are vast and varied. This is your opportunity to safeguard critical infrastructure, order and protect sensitive data, and defend against emerging cyber threats. You'll be part of an expert team who protect against thousands of threats every day.

In this role, you'll:

Be hands‑on across cyber readiness and resilience activities, supporting cyber exercises, vulnerability uplift coordination, threat‑informed readiness preparation, and data collection for reporting.

You will conduct and support cyber readiness exercises, maintain playbooks, procedures, and registers, and integrate threat intelligence into readiness planning to strengthen organisational preparedness.

You will work directly with cyber tools and OSINT aggregation platforms to monitor, analyse, and correlate open‑source threat intelligence from security advisories, forums, and public data sources.

The role contributes to readiness metrics, dashboards, and continuous improvement initiatives, delivering visible and practical outcomes across a hybrid working model.
