Cyber Security Compliance Analyst
Thales · Sydney
Your experience working to strict regulatory frameworks like PACE and CPIA gives you a natural grounding in compliance and assurance, which is exactly what this cyber security GRC role demands. You've spent years maintaining accurate records, managing risk registers, and engaging with diverse stakeholders under pressure, so coordinating audits and driving adherence to standards like ISO 27001 will feel familiar. The role is a development opportunity, so your proven attention to detail and process-oriented mindset will let you build the specific cyber security knowledge on the job.

Integrity and Security Analyst
NSW Government · Sydney
A$133,348 – A$146,945Estimated
This role directly leverages your operational intelligence experience from policing — you'll produce intelligence products that identify security risks and inform frontline decisions, just as you did under the National Intelligence Model. Your ability to assess threats, manage multi-agency coordination, and apply legislative frameworks like PACE or RIPA is exactly what the NSW Electoral Commission needs to safeguard election integrity. The requirement for 10+ years in law enforcement confirms this is a role built for your background, not a sideways move into a completely new field.
