Description:
Who Are CPP?
CPP is a leading high-voltage infrastructure provider, connecting renewable energy projects to Australia’s electricity grid.
As a member of Quanta Services, a Fortune 500 company ranked #192 on the NYSX, we specialise in the design, construction, commissioning, and maintenance of substations, transmission lines, wind farms, and battery storage systems.
Established in 1996, we’ve connected more wind farms and renewable batteries than any other company. With over 800 employees and offices in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth, we partner with Australia’s major transmission providers to deliver innovative, end-to-end solutions.
Join us in shaping the future of energy.
The Opportunity
This is a brand-new position, created to give CPP a clearly named OT cyber security lead across all customer project delivery. You'll build and maintain an executive-endorsed OT cyber security management program, and embed secure-by-design principles across the full project lifecycle — from tendering through design, procurement, construction, commissioning and handover.
You'll work closely with our engineering teams, executives, legal, procurement and bid staff, design and project managers, commissioning and construction staff, customers and their cyber leads, and suppliers and subcontractors. This role is squarely focused on Operational Technology (OT) cyber security for projects delivered by CPP.
Reporting to the Engineering Manager in your state, this is a high-autonomy, consultative role for someone who wants real ownership over how OT cyber security is done at CPP — with the credibility to influence both technical teams and senior stakeholders.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as CPP's OT cyber security lead and primary point of contact for OT cyber security across project delivery.
- Establish and maintain OT cyber security governance, standards and project delivery processes aligned to IEC 62443 and AESCSF.
- Lead OT cyber risk assessments, project compliance documentation, supply-chain assurance and vendor evaluations.
- Interpret customer cyber security requirements and contractual obligations, and translate these into practical project deliverables.
- Develop OT cyber security architectures, standards and controls, including secure network design, zoning, segmentation and remote access, in collaboration with our SCADA engineering teams.
- Review factory and site acceptance testing to verify cyber security controls are implemented and compliant.
- Maintain audit-ready documentation, registers and evidence packs, and support incident response, patch management and change control processes.
- Provide practical guidance to executives, project teams and stakeholders on cyber security obligations, risks and requirements.
- Monitor emerging threats, industry developments and regulatory requirements relevant to CPP's role as an EPC contractor and service provider.
Skills and Experiences:
About You
To be successful in this role, you will possess:
- Deep OT cyber security knowledge in critical infrastructure environments (transmission, distribution or grid-connected renewables), clearly differentiated from enterprise IT security.
- Practical application of IEC 62443 and strong working knowledge of AESCSF and SOCI Act obligations.
- Substantial experience in OT cyber security, ideally with a tertiary qualification in cyber security, IT, electrical engineering or OT engineering (or equivalent relevant experience).
- A recognised OT/ICS or cyber security certification, such as GICSP, ISA/IEC 62443 Cyber Security Expert, CISSP or CISM, is highly regarded.
- Strong stakeholder engagement and influencing skills, with the ability to communicate highly technical issues clearly to both technical and executive audiences.
- A commercially practical, collaborative approach, and the confidence to build a new capability with a high degree of autonomy.
