Your role

Implementation Team – the technical heartbeat. You configure services, work with monitoring and automation, and get close to the cyber tools we use every day.
This combination provides you with both technical expertise and an in-depth understanding of how our organisation operates. By the end of the programme, you will play an active role in ensuring effective collaboration and seamless integration between the three teams, helping to maintain the strong cooperation that keeps the Cyber Defence Center functioning efficiently.
