For over 170 years, Anglicare has supported people and communities across Sydney and the surrounds. Our Seniors Communities portfolio spans Retirement Living and Support at Home services, supporting thousands of older Australians and their families.

We’re looking for a Cyber Risk and Controls Analyst to join our Cyber Security and IT Risk team. This role focuses on performing risk assessments in accordance with the team’s practices and guidelines as well as implementing and assessing cyber security controls, in alignment to the Cyber uplift program, supporting governance and compliance initiatives, and helping strengthen Anglicare’s cyber security posture.

Working closely with business and technology stakeholders, you will contribute to controls assurance activities, risk assessments and continuous monitoring programs that help protect Anglicare’s critical systems, data and digital assets.

As part of a purpose-driven organisation, you’ll be working in a collaborative and values-led environment where your work directly contributes to enriching lives and strengthening communities.

The Cyber Risk and Controls Analyst plays an important role in supporting Anglicare’s cyber security governance, risk management, and to a lesser degree, controls implementation and assurance activities. You will determine security effectiveness through risk assessments, as well as implementing and assessing cyber security controls, in alignment to the Cyber uplift program, monitor compliance with security frameworks and standards, and provide insights that help strengthen cyber resilience across the organisation.

Working alongside Cyber Security, IT Architecture and business stakeholders, you will support control validation, governance frameworks, risk assessments and remediation initiatives while helping ensure Anglicare maintains a secure and resilient technology environment.

You will support the development and maintenance of governance and compliance frameworks, conduct risk assessments and gap analyses, monitor control performance and remediation activities, and contribute to security assurance initiatives. You will also prepare reports and documentation, support governance processes and work closely with stakeholders to strengthen cyber security controls and reduce organisational risk.

You are a cyber security professional with experience in risk assessments, controls assurance, compliance and governance. You have a good understanding of cyber security control frameworks, in particular the SCF framework, compliance requirements and security best practices, and enjoy analysing complex environments to identify control gaps and opportunities for improvement.

You combine strong analytical and problem-solving skills with excellent communication and stakeholder engagement capabilities. You are detail-oriented, collaborative and proactive, with the ability to translate technical findings into practical recommendations that support business and security objectives. You are also committed to continuous learning and staying informed about emerging threats, technologies and regulatory developments.
