Security Consultant

You've spent years in the trenches, designing secure environments, guiding clients through risk, and implementing solutions that actually work. You know your frameworks, you speak fluent NIST and ISO, and you're just as comfortable in a boardroom as you are in a firewall config.

Now it's time to join a team that backs your expertise, values your input, and gives you the space to shape security standards across a diverse client base.

We're First Focus, Australia's #1 MSP (Cloud Tango says so, 8 years straight), and we're not slowing down. With 330+ technical pros across Australia, New Zealand, and the Philippines, we're scaling fast and doubling down on security. This isn't a siloed role: it's embedded in a growing, collaborative team that's shaping how midmarket clients think about risk, resilience, and real-world protection. Based in Mascot, you'll be at the heart of things, designing, building, and delivering security that's not just smart, but scalable, practical, and built to last.

You don't just identify problems, you help fix them Audit and compliance experience (extra kudos if you've been on the audit side of the table) At least one heavyweight cert: CISSP, SSCP, CCSP, CISM, CISA. Show us your stripes MSP or MSSP experience? That's pure gold. If you've got it, flaunt it
