This role marks the beginning of a major transformation program where AI will play a central role in shaping the organisation’s future. As one of the first specialists in this space, you’ll have the opportunity to own the AI security strategy and establish the foundations for how AI is securely integrated across the enterprise.
If you’re looking to combine architecture, consulting, and technical leadership in a greenfield environment, this is your chance to help define best practices, influence direction, and ensure safe adoption of AI at scale.
Role: - Develop and embed AI security objectives into the broader cyber strategy and enterprise architecture.
- Lead AI-specific risk assessments, threat modelling, and architectural reviews to mitigate risks such as adversarial attacks, model poisoning, privacy breaches, and abuse of AI systems.
- Guide the adoption of AI security frameworks, governance models, and policies that align with regulatory requirements (APRA CPS234, Essential 8, NIST, ISO, COBIT).
- Partner with technology leaders to ensure AI solutions are secure, scalable, and aligned with the organisation’s risk appetite.
- Provide technical oversight across cloud platforms (Azure/AWS), IAM, and Zero Trust environments, ensuring AI adoption strengthens security posture rather than increasing exposure.
- Collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, shaping decisions and building understanding at all levels.
You will bring: - A strong passion for AI security, with knowledge of AI risks, frameworks, and regulatory trends.
- Solid background in Security Architecture or consulting with a technical background
- Experience in the financial services sector, ideally with knowledge of APRA CPS234 and other Australian regulatory standards.
- Hands-on expertise in cloud security (Azure, AWS), DevSecOps practices, IAM, and Zero Trust architectures.
- Familiarity with security frameworks such as SABSA or TOGAF, and professional certifications (CISSP, CRISC, SABSA).
- Excellent communication and consulting skills, with the ability to influence and guide stakeholders at all levels
Why Join? - Play a pivotal role in a greenfield AI security program.
- Be part of a highly collaborative, inclusive culture that values innovation and diversity of thought.
- Work in a flexible environment with opportunities for growth, development, and thought leadership.
- Melbourne CBD–based with hybrid working arrangements available.
