Form of workWho we are
Countersight is a specialist cybersecurity company delivering security research, capability development and consulting services to clients within government and across the private sector. We are independent, Australian, and Canberra based but with the flexibility to operate Australia wide.
Our team works on interesting problems across the entire technology stack, from embedded systems to web and mobile applications, finding creative ways to deliver the capability our clients need.
The Role
Location: Canberra, ACT
Hours: Full-time
Salary: Competitive based on experience
Consultancy allows us to make a direct positive impact on a day-to-day basis. It provides our clients with the opportunity for rapid progress while enabling us to learn valuable lessons that feed into our security research and related work.
Our Cybersecurity Consultants work with clients to directly address the risks they face through targeted capability development. This spans from planning and governance through to network monitoring and incident response, with the ultimate goal of fostering self-sufficiency within the client teams. Our consultants work across a range of fields and specialisations, including:
- Incident response & threat detection
- Threat intelligence & reporting
- Systems design & accreditation
- Governance, risk & assurance
- Systems engineering & integration
Working individually or in small teams, our consultants work on engagements ranging from short-term assurance exercises through to long-term deployments embedded as subject matter experts within client teams.
We are looking for people with relevant experience and an interest in consultancy work, from mid-career through to experienced consultants.
A background in consultancy is not a must-have, and we would be interested in talking with anyone looking for an opportunity to get into consultancy. Countersight will provide and support ongoing training and accreditation activities.
Relevant accreditations, certifications or training are a plus.
Why work for Countersight
As a small company, we prioritize supporting our team and fostering a positive, flexible, and enjoyable work culture. Collaboration, continuous learning and the latitude to experiment are the heart of our approach.
Our main office is located a short walk from Braddon and some of Canberra's most popular cafes, restaurants, breweries and coffee roasters, and is also convenient for public transport, including light rail.
Our work and client focus allows us to directly contribute to the security and success of our community, and we believe that security is the key ingredient in opening up the promise of technology.
We thrive on deep technical challenges and relish the opportunity to extend our knowledge and explore the limits of the technologies we work with.
We enjoy what we do, and we think you will too.
