• Manage the execution of upgrades, enhancements, and requests.


• Support and maintain email security controls, including threat protection, phishing detection, safe links/attachments, and secure email gateways.


• Identify and recommend process improvements and provide security control enhancement recommendations aligned to regulatory requirements and industry best practices.


• Provide on call support (after hours support).

Banking is changing and we’re changing with it, giving our people great opportunities to try new things, learn and grow. Whatever your role at ANZ, you’ll be building your future, while helping to build ours.
