Dear Aspirant We empower our people to stay resilient and relevant in a constantly changing world. We’re looking for people who are always searching for creative ways to grow and learn. People who want to make a real impact, now and in the future. Does that sound like you? Then it seems like you’d make a excellent addition to our vibrant international team. We are looking for: Cybersecurity Operations Lead You’ll make an impact by:
• Lead day-to-day operations across vulnerability management, remediation coordination, ACP administration, operational reporting, and security governance support.
• Own operational workflows, workload distribution, queue health, backlog tracking, aging management, SLA monitoring, and escalation of overdue or blocked activities.
• Coordinate vulnerability remediation with asset owners, infrastructure teams, application teams, OT/plant stakeholders, vendors, and designated onshore/DTS/C&T; SMEs.
• Ensure vulnerability findings are processed consistently using severity categories, prioritization rules, remediation SLAs and escalation criteria approved through the agreed governance process.
• Coordinate remediation planning and track agreed actions; escalate business-impact assessments, risk determinations, residual-risk decisions, and production-sensitive remediation approvals to the designated authority.
• Oversee ACP administrative workflows, including documentation completeness, evidence collection, asset-record maintenance, review scheduling, RTP action tracking, exception tracking, and status reporting.
• Ensure ACP records and protection-concept documentation reflect decisions and technical inputs provided or validated by the responsible Asset Owner and DTS/C&T; SME; do not independently approve protection requirements or protection concepts.
• Own operational KPIs, service capacity planning, backlog and aging metrics, workload forecasting, staffing inputs, and management reporting.
• Develop and maintain operating procedures, workflow guidance, RACI definitions, escalation paths, reporting standards, and quality checks for consistent service delivery.
• Facilitate operational reviews with stakeholders, communicate dependencies and delivery risks, and ensure decisions and actions are assigned to authorized owners.
• Drive continuous improvement and automation for ticket workflows, evidence tracking, reporting, and repeatable operational tasks.
• Mentor analysts and engineers on process execution, documentation quality, stakeholder coordination, and consistent application of approved procedures.




• Support audit readiness by ensuring operational records, evidence references, status reports, and action logs are complete and retrievable.
• Provide operational leadership and technical coordination for vulnerability remediation and ACP activities. Escalate risk acceptance, OT architecture, compensating-control selection, ACP technical approval, and production-impacting remediation decisions to designated DTS/C&T; SMEs.
• For OT/manufacturing environments—including SCADA, substations, utilities, HMI, PLC, RTU, and DCS—ensure work follows established change-control processes and is coordinated with plant operations and the designated technical authority.
• Track and report OT-related remediation dependencies, vendor constraints, maintenance-window requirements, and unresolved blockers without independently authorizing production changes. Use your skills to move the world forward
