Job Description
If you love chasing down vulnerabilities 🔍, locking things tight, and keeping the bad guys out (while laughing about the chaos they cause), this might be your next move.
We’re looking for a Security Technician to join our growing Security Practice in the Philippines. You’ll work across a range of Australian clients — helping detect, defend, and deliver smarter, safer systems. It’s hands-on, fast-moving, and packed with opportunities to grow your cybersecurity career. 🚀
At First Focus, we’re quietly chuffed to be Australia’s most awarded Managed Service Provider — eight years running. We’re proud, but not precious about it. Awards come from great people, not trophies, so we invest heavily in training, tools, and technology to help our teams thrive.
You’ll work with people who genuinely care about doing good work, sharing knowledge, and keeping IT simple.
What You’ll Be Doing
🔹 Hunt threats, fix vulnerabilities, and make security breaches deeply inconvenient for attackers.
🔹 Deliver security assessments and proactive improvements across client environments.
🔹 Take on escalations from our Support Team — calmly, methodically, with a touch of curiosity.
🔹 Jump in when incidents happen: gather evidence, analyse causes, and help stop repeats.
🔹 Tune and support platforms like ThreatLocker, SentinelOne, Huntress, Avanan, and Cisco Umbrella.
🔹 Spot what’s not working and suggest ways to make it simpler, faster, or safer.
Experience with security frameworks like Essential 8, NIST CSF, or NIST 800-series.
🔹 Familiarity with Microsoft 365 Security Suite (Defender, Purview, Entra ID Protection).
🔹 Knowledge of Azure Security (Sentinel, Defender for Cloud, PIM/PAM).
🔹 Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills.
🔹 Excellent written and spoken English.
🔹 Collaborative, curious, and calm under pressure.
🔹 A professional approach with a genuine interest in helping people stay secure.
🔹 A mindset that aligns with our values — curiosity, clear communication, ownership, teamwork, simplicity, customer care, and constant growth. 🌱
