Compliance and Security Coordinator

Quality and Security Advisor

If you’re the kind of person who notices the small things and understands why they matter, you’ll feel right at home here.

We’re looking for a Security & Quality Advisor to join our Adelaide based Defence team - someone who can blend security awareness, vetting insight, quality discipline, and a steady, people centred approach to uplift how we operate across the enterprise.

This isn’t a narrow compliance role. It’s a mix of assurance, improvement, collaboration, and trusted advisor work, supporting a mission driven organisation delivering capability into Australia’s Defence sector.

• Supporting Defence specific security requirements, including clearance obligations and the secure handling of sensitive information
• Contributing to vetting related activities and promoting a strong security culture across the organisation
• Conducting quality and process audits, identifying opportunities to improve controls, efficiency, and consistency
• Communicating clearly across teams to ensure complex ideas land with the right people in the right way
• Championing continuous improvement and helping teams adapt, innovate, and refine how we work
• Demonstrating our values in every interaction and supporting a respectful, safe, and high performing environment
• Providing people and/or technical leadership aligned to your level of experience
• Delivering against individual and team objectives that support our broader enterprise strategy

What you’ll bring

• Experience in security advisory, vetting, quality assurance, auditing, or a related discipline
• A practical understanding of Defence security frameworks (AGSVA, DISP, PSPF, ISM or similar)
• Strong communication skills - you can translate complexity into clarity
• A mindset geared toward improvement, structure, and doing things the right way
• The ability to work collaboratively across technical and non technical teams
• Current Security Clearance
