Role Overview

As our Cyber Prioritisation Lead, you'll build and drive the threat-informed prioritisation structure and process that sits at the heart of the cyber function. You'll draw on signals from right across cyber and turn them into a clear order of what we do next - and you'll be the person who engages and influences stakeholders to land those priorities, even the hard ones.
What You Will Do

Build and own the threat-informed prioritisation model โ€” the structure, scoring and cadence that turns competing demands into a clear, defensible order of work. Establish the process that turns threat intelligence, vulnerability management, red team activity and incidents into prioritised, actionable requirements.
Why It Might Be a Fit

We care more about how you think and how you bring people with you than about a specific tool list. The most aligned person in this role is a sharp critical thinker, an excellent communicator, and someone genuinely energised by building something new.
Requirements

- Threat Intelligence & Tooling โ€” youโ€™ve worked hands-on with CTI and threat intel platforms (like OpenCTI or similar) and know how to turn raw intel feeds into something practical that drives prioritisation.

- Prioritisation & Risk โ€” you take inputs from across cyber (threats, vulnerabilities, incidents) and translate them into clear, defensible priorities using risk-based approaches (Cyber Risk, PIR etc.).

- Red Team Integration โ€” youโ€™ve partnered with Red Teams to reassess what matters most, using data (exploitability, impact, asset value) to reprioritise controls and actions.

- Stakeholder Influence โ€” you work confidently with senior stakeholders โ€” including CISO, Deputy CISO and Security Engineering Execs โ€” and bring them along with clear, evidence-based prioritisation rationale.

- Cyber Domain Expertise โ€” you bring strong working knowledge across CTI, SOC, vulnerability management and offensive security, and use it to connect the dots and drive outcome-focused decisions.

Benefits

- Performance-related pay

- 16 weeks paid parental leave for primary and secondary carers

- Access to thousands of learning programs so you can level-up

- Purchased annual leave scheme

- Additional Telstra day off, for you to spend as you like

- Additional 30% off Telstra products and services

- Toolkit provided (laptop + mobile phone + plan - all covered)
