The Opportunity

Join us as a Cyber Enablement Manager in North Sydney and help build a strong security culture across one of Australia's largest essential services organisations.

Key Responsibilities

• Assess and establish a baseline of Ventia's current security culture and behavioural maturity.
• Develop a clear vision and measurable framework for security culture across the organisation.
• Design and implement a practical security culture and engagement strategy aligned with Ventia's operating model.
• Define meaningful success measures and report on progress against agreed objectives.
• Drive initiatives that influence behavioural change and improve security ownership across the business.
• Embed security into onboarding, induction and employee lifecycle processes.
• Partner with technology teams to strengthen accountability for security outcomes.
• Work closely with executives and senior leaders to reinforce security expectations and leadership behaviours.
• Engage project and operational leaders to ensure security is considered throughout planning and delivery activities.
• Leverage existing communication channels, leadership forums and engagement mechanisms to maximise impact.
• Provide regular reporting and insights that demonstrate measurable behavioural and business outcomes.
