Full description

Job Requisition ID: 41843

  • Take the next step in accelerating your career at Deloitte
  • Whether you're looking for a new role in your current Business Unit, a different BU or a move interstate, Pathways — our internal mobility program — can provide the framework to support you
  • This is an opportunity to use and further develop your automation and vulnerability management skills

What will your typical day look like?

Working across vulnerability management and application security, you'll guide initiatives that improve how risks are identified, prioritised and addressed across servers, workstations and applications. That could mean designing automation that removes manual effort, improving remediation workflows, or helping teams make better decisions through clearer reporting and triage.

A big part of the role is finding practical ways to apply AI in security operations. From exploring LLM and agent-based use cases to improving prioritisation, orchestration and decision support, you'll help turn emerging capability into meaningful operational uplift for security teams and platform owners.

Success in this role comes through coordination as much as technical capability. You'll work closely with security teams, platform owners and business stakeholders to keep initiatives moving, lift service maturity, and strengthen governance, metrics and continuous improvement across the function.

The team works across cyber operations, vulnerability management, application security and risk reduction, focusing on practical, scalable controls that strengthen resilience across the enterprise. It's a space where technical depth, good judgment and strong stakeholder collaboration come together to solve real security challenges.

  • Confidence working with stakeholders across security, platform and business teams to influence outcomes
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to guide initiatives, coordinate delivery, and drive continuous improvement
  • Experience with risk-based prioritisation, remediation workflows, reporting, or service governance would be highly regarded
