Cyber Leader – Director

About the role
As a Cyber Leader, you will be a senior delivery‑focused professional, trusted by executives and boards to help design, implement, and run cyber‑enabled business and technology outcomes.
While Auckland will be your primary base, you will be part of a national Cyber practice to deliver complex, high‑impact programmes.
This role suits someone who is collaborative, and who enjoys combining client delivery, thought leadership, and team development.
What you’ll do
In this role, you will:
Build and nurture relationships with key stakeholders in client organisations
Identify and convert new opportunities to support clients achieving their business outcomes through applying effective cyber expertise
Lead and deliver cyber engagements from shaping through to implementation
Take accountability for programme outcomes, timelines, and budgets
Contribute the growth and direction of Deloitte’s national Cyber practice including bringing new cyber services and offerings into delivery with clients
Apply strong commercial acumen to contribute to running of the practice effectively and profitably
Work closely with our Technology & Transformation leaders to deliver integrated outcomes
Support and develop high‑performing delivery teams across the Cyber practice
The work you’ll be involved in
Our Cyber team delivers across advisory, implementation, and operations, including:
Cyber strategy and operating model design aligned to transformation agendas
Secure cloud and digital platform enablement
Identity and access modernisation programmes
Cyber resilience, readiness, and response for critical services
Regulatory, risk, and trust uplift initiatives
Secure adoption of data, AI, and emerging technologies
This role has a strong emphasis on leading delivery and seeing work through to completion, not just advisory design, strategy or account management.
About you
You will likely bring:
15+ years’ experience, with senior leadership experience in cyber, technology, or digital transformation
Strong experience in client‑facing delivery leadership roles, ideally within consulting or professional services
A proven ability to build trusted relationships with senior leaders
Experience contributing to business development, account growth, or practice leadership
Broad cyber capability, with depth in one or more areas (e.g. cyber strategy, identity, cloud security, resilience)
Proven programme or project delivery experience, achieving outcomes on time and on budget
Preferred (but not essential): experience working with organisations in Financial Services and/or the Consumer industry, such as banking, insurance, retail, or consumer products
If you’re motivated by the opportunity to deliver meaningful cyber outcomes and help organisations transform safely, we’d love to hear from you.
