the Pacific island states.



You will be expected to develop and provide world-leading expertise in the
area of cyber-security capacity-building, particularly in its regional hubs
and you will be responsible for helping to deliver the Capacity Centre’s
research programme, joining a dynamic and diverse team of researchers and
knowledge-exchange experts. This role also includes close work with high-level
stakeholders in governments, regional and international organisations,
academia and industry to promote and develop this work.

experience OR comparable professional experience in a closely related field

or more disciplines relevant to the dimensions of cyber-security capacity
being studied by the Capacity Centre. With commercial awareness and personal
