Your Role & Team
As CreditorWatch strengthens its core cyber governance, risk and compliance capability, we are establishing a Cyber GRC Lead role to own and mature our information security management and assurance program.
This is a hands-on leadership role responsible for turning regulatory, certification, customer and business expectations into a practical, sustainable control environment. You will lead cyber risk management, assurance, policy governance, audit readiness, third-party security and resilience activities, while building strong ownership across the business.
You will work closely with Engineering, Legal, P&C, IT, and business leaders to ensure cyber risk is understood, decisions are evidence-based, and controls operate effectively. The role is accountable for the Cyber GRC program, but succeeds by enabling control owners rather than becoming a central bottleneck.
You'll report directly to our Head of IT & InfoSec.
Please note, it's a full-time opportunity offering hybrid working conditions out of our Sydney CBD Office.
Some of your responsibilities include and are not limited to:
Cyber GRC Strategy & Operating Model
-
Own and deliver the Cyber GRC roadmap, aligned to business priorities, risk appetite and regulatory requirements.
-
Establish clear governance, accountability, reporting and measures of effectiveness.
-
Lead and develop Cyber GRC capability, including internal and external stakeholders.
Risk, Controls & Policy Governance
-
Own the information security risk management framework and register, including risk assessment, treatment, acceptance and reporting.

Oversee the information security policy framework, ensuring policies, standards and procedures remain current and effective.
-
Establish sustainable control ownership, testing and remediation practices.
Assurance, Audits & Certifications

Lead ongoing readiness and compliance for ISO 27001 and SOC 2, including audit planning, evidence coordination, control testing and remediation.
-
Develop readiness for additional obligations and certifications, including ISO 42001, CPS 230, CPS 234 and the ASD Essential Eight.
-
Manage audit relationships, findings and customer/partner security assurance requests.
Third-Party Risk, Resilience & Incident Governance
-
Own the cyber components of third-party risk management, including due diligence, reassessments and security requirements.
-
Provide governance oversight across cyber incident readiness, business continuity, disaster recovery and operational resilience.
-
Partner with Engineering, DevOps, IT and Security Engineering to translate risks and control gaps into practical remediation plans.
AI Governance & Business Enablement
-
Lead responsible AI governance, including policy, risk, assurance and accountability.
-
Establish proportionate governance and guardrails for approved AI use cases.
-
Promote security and compliance as business enablers through clear, practical and streamlined requirements.
Our ideal candidate-
Proven experience leading or owning Cyber Security GRC programs within SaaS, technology, financial services or regulated environments.

Strong knowledge of cyber risk, controls, policy governance, third-party risk and customer assurance.
-
Ability to translate regulatory, contractual and framework requirements into practical, business-owned controls.
-
Strong understanding of incident management, business continuity, disaster recovery and operational resilience.
-
Exposure to CPS 230, CPS 234 and the ASD Essential Eight is highly regarded; AI governance/ISO 42001 experience is desirable.
-
Experience with GRC and workflow tools, such as Drata, Jira, Confluence or equivalent.
-
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to challenge constructively and make complex risk easy to understand.
