Information Security Assurance Advisor

3 months ago

Wellington, Wellington, New Zealand New Zealand Government Full time
Mō te tūnga | About the role
We have recently procured a range of new leading-edge capabilities including the P8 surveillance aircraft and frigate modernisation.

Our Information Security (INFOSEC) Advisory Team works closely with stakeholders to identify threats and risks in order to provide correct advice and ensure NZDF's systems and platforms have the appropriate protective measures.

This allows us to carry out its global mission as directed by the New Zealand Government.

We are hiring INFOSEC professionals to join our growing INFOSEC Advisory Team who can proactively strengthen our enterprise level of INFOSEC risk and mitigation.

A typical day in these roles will involve working across multiple areas from traditional INFOSEC to the specific INFOSEC requirements of our military capabilities, platforms and supply chains and developing security policy.

We work in a unique environment where you will regularly engage with stakeholder cross the organisation to provide advice and guidance around the INFOSEC aspects of projects, including risk assessment and mitigation solutions.

You will be working closely with our INFOSEC Assurance team to ensure compliance of INFOSEC requirements.

Although based in Defence House within the Wellington CBD, your role will see you regularly visiting our camps and bases across the country, with the potential for overseas travel as well.

This role has the option of working 1-2 days from home per week, with flexible starting and finishing times, as well as being open to part-time/job-sharing options.

Ngā pūkenga me ngā wheako | Skills and Experience
You have a good understanding of INFOSEC with a keen desire to learn and develop within a role.

Relationship management will be key to your success, with an ability to build strong rapports with key stakeholders across all levels of the organisation and can adapt your approach as required.


Ideally, you will have a strong foundational knowledge of:

  • Information security;
  • The NZ and NZDF strategic environment; and
  • The ability to present complex issues in clear and understandable language.


You will work across classified and unclassified environments and systems to ensure NZDF has a sustained and global operational deployment capability.

This means gaining knowledge of the complex threat environment against New Zealand, and an understanding of how the threat can affect NZDF systems, platforms and the flow on effect on people and outputs.

Mō mātou | About Us

Defence Information Security delivers a trusted information security and cyber security system (INFOSEC) that helps to protect the NZDF from threats within the information environment, both physical and digital.

Every hour of every day, 365 days of the year, the New Zealand Defence Force is contributing to the defence, security and well-being of Aotearoa / New Zealand.

As a modern professional military, it is our goal to maintain well-trained, equipped, and disciplined armed forces that can react to crisis at short notice.

Nōu te rourou | What's in it for you

In these roles, you will be a valued member of the wider NZDF whānau and you will get to take part in social, sporting (if that is your thing) and community events throughout the year.

We will absolutely encourage you to take advantage of opportunities to experience life on ship, observe military exercises and take a ride in our aircraft during your time with us.

If staying fit is your goal, we can help with that too. As a NZDF member you will be entitled to discounted gym memberships and sports gear (as well as a range of other Great benefits for you and your family)
