- Evaluate logging, monitoring and incident readiness
- Conduct structured gap analyses and develop prioritised, practical recommendations
- Produce clear reports and deliver workshops for both technical and executive audiences
Requirements
- 7+ years’ experience in cyber security, OT security or related engineering
- Proven experience in energy, utilities or critical infrastructure environments
