@itgrrl (Jessica) |
eo2026jobs@itgrrl.com | I'm a "senior cyber gardener" (🔓 👩💻 🌱 🚿️️ ️️🌿 🌤️ ️🌳 👩💻 🔒) with 30+ years' IT & InfoSec / cyber security experience who tries to make technologies less terrible. My experience spans technical and management domains including cyber security, systems & networks, web dev, and IT management & service delivery. In my day job, I'm generally focused on cyber security ("risk management with computers"), information privacy, and IT policy & governance. In my "spare" time 😆 I enjoy reading privacy policies & legislation (no, really! 😬), tinkering with tech, stargazing, Star Trek 🖖 & Buffy (duh), musical theatre, and the occasional unexpected journey. | Interesting senior cyber security roles that incorporate any or all of GRC (governance, risk, & compliance) and hands-on-keyboard aspects; advising, supporting, and influencing senior leadership; establishing and / or improving security culture - you get the picture. 😊 I'm looking for a full-time role either hybrid remote / in office (Canberra) or fully remote. If your org has a full-time in-office culture, I'm probably not your gal. At this stage of my career I'm only prepared to work for orgs that are a good cultural / values fit, which for me means that they're not evil, supportive of staff (including valuing & supporting diversity, genuine work / life balance, etc.), have ambitious goals but realistic expectations, are appropriatyely resourced (both people and funding), and don't achieve their ambitious goals by burning people out. 💁♀️ |
