Security Awareness Consultant
About the assignment
You work with organisations to build a security-conscious culture from the ground up. Your challenge: move beyond one-time training to create lasting behavioural change that sticks.
You assess current awareness maturity, identify gaps, and design tailored programmes. You measure impact through metrics that show real risk reduction, not just completion rates.
Your work directly reduces phishing clicks, credential compromise, and insider risk—making you a strategic partner to leadership and security teams alike.
Your responsibilities
- Design comprehensive security awareness strategies aligned with organisational risk profile and maturity level
- Develop engaging training content: e-learning modules, workshops, simulations, and phishing campaigns
- Conduct security culture assessments and baseline awareness maturity evaluations
- Deliver awareness programmes to diverse audiences: executives, developers, support staff, contractors
- Measure programme effectiveness through metrics, surveys, and incident correlation analysis
- Manage awareness platforms and LMS systems to track completion and engagement
- Create targeted campaigns for emerging threats: ransomware, social engineering, supply chain attacks
- Partner with CISO, GRC, and HR teams to embed security awareness into onboarding and performance reviews
