About the role
As a Cyber Engineering and Automation Manager, this is a high-impact, greenfield leadership role for a senior cybersecurity professional with strong hands-on engineering capability. The role sits at the heart of Security Operations, with responsibility for defining and implementing how central SOC services collaborate with supporting functions across the organisation.
You will shape the end-to-end operating model for security operations, with a strong focus on automation, tooling, and scalable delivery across cyber threat intelligence and incident response. A key early priority will be onboarding and stabilising a new Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP), followed by building the foundations for stronger internal security capabilities over time.
