Graduate | T&T | Cyber Operate

Job Requisition ID: 41327 

• Work in a live 24/7 Security Operations Centre environment.
• Start your career with structure, support and work that actually matters.
• Learn from cyber specialists invested in your growth from day one.

You'll monitor real cyber threats as they happen, helping protect enterprise environments from phishing, malware, ransomware and other live incidents. Through our Graduate Program, you'll build hands-on experience in Cyber Operate, with structured training before stepping into night shift work that supports real-time cyber defence across Australia.

What will your typical day look like?

In this role, you'll spend your time monitoring alerts, triaging incidents and supporting response activity across client environments. You'll build practical capability in security operations by working on live incidents with support from experienced analysts, using the kinds of tools, workflows and escalation paths that make cyber defence work in the real world.  More specifically, you'll:

• Monitor and triage security alerts across enterprise client environments in real time.
• Investigate phishing, identity theft, malware and ransomware incidents under analyst guidance.
• Escalate higher-risk incidents and support Managed Detection and Response operations.

This role gives you direct exposure to the pace and complexity of live cyber defence, while helping you build technical judgement in a way few graduate roles can offer. With structured onboarding, real incidents and a fully remote model, you'll grow a cyber career that is hard to replicate anywhere else.

As well as learning in the flow of work, you'll also be part of our firm-wide Graduate Program. You'll have a permanent, full-time role from day one, with structured learning, real-world client work, and hands-on projects to build your career. You'll be supported by a dedicated buddy and coach, with flexible work options and wellbeing support as you grow.
