Embedded Security Education & Awareness Programme Consultant

We are seeking a consultant to manage and evolve our clients Security Education & Awareness programme. The programme protects their people, research, and intellectual property by driving security-conscious behaviour across the organisation through training, communications, and engagement.

A critical success factor is understanding the clients unique research culture: their training and communications must be engaging, collaborative, and lead with "the why" — explaining the reasons behind our security controls without feeling bureaucratic, overly alarmist, or punitive.

Core Responsibilities

• Mandatory Security Training: Own the annual training cycle end-to-end: coordinate with our e-learning production vendor to refresh video content and scenarios each year, manage rollout and completion tracking, build leadership dashboards, and escalate non-compliance.
• Conference & Travel Security: Produce location-specific security briefings and short-form audio content for major conferences, drawing on threat intelligence inputs and distributing through our events coordination channels.
• New Hire Security Onboarding: Deliver monthly live onboarding sessions, create interactive exercises and follow-up assessments, maintain on-demand recordings, and manage automated follow-up communications.
• Threat Briefings: Coordinate quarterly security briefings for high-profile researchers and secure recurring slots at leadership forums to deliver concise threat updates.
• Internal Security Portal: Maintain and expand the clients security resource hub with a library of bite-sized training content, threat updates, and best-practice guidance tailored to AI research workflows.
• Ongoing Communications & Engagement: Produce regular security awareness content across internal channels — newsletters, chat posts, short-form video — to keep security top-of-mind between formal training cycles.
