Senior Security Architect

If you live in Australia or New Zealand, you’ve likely heard of AMP. But at a time when society is changing, we are too. We’re now a nimbler business with new leadership and thinking. 

For us, these are exciting times. There’s a real potential for big thinkers to help us redefine what financial services could be. And turn our legacy into something even more positive and powerful for the future.

Help people create their tomorrow, while you create yours

We help people with their banking, super, retirement and finances. Through upturns, downturns, recessions, and major life transitions. Every day, we help people see and make more of their financial potential, so that they can create their tomorrow. And we’ve been doing it for over 170 years. 

If we do our job well, we genuinely add to the prosperity of our country and its people. 

How You'll Make an Impact

As a Senior Security Architect, you'll help shape the security foundations of AMP's next generation cloud, data and AI platforms. Working across strategic technology initiatives, you'll partner with engineers, architects and business leaders to embed security into our AWS and Azure environments from design through to delivery. You'll play a pivotal role in ensuring our cloud-native solutions, enterprise data platforms and emerging AI capabilities are secure, scalable and aligned to regulatory obligations, while still enabling innovation and speed to market. 

This is an opportunity to influence some of the most exciting technology investments at AMP, including our evolving cloud ecosystem and AI platforms. You'll drive Secure by Design practices, define reusable security patterns, guide security control selection and provide expert architectural leadership across major transformation programs. Your work will directly contribute to protecting customer data, strengthening cyber resilience and enabling AMP to confidently leverage modern cloud and AI technologies

What You'll Bring to the Role

We're seeking a seasoned Security Architect with a strong background in cloud security and modern platform architecture. You'll bring experience securing enterprise-scale AWS environments, along with exposure to Microsoft Azure and contemporary cloud-native services. A background supporting large-scale data platforms, data engineering ecosystems and AI-enabled technology solutions will be highly valued as AMP continues to expand its use of advanced analytics and AI capabilities. 

Beyond technical expertise, you'll be a trusted advisor capable of translating complex security requirements into practical business outcomes. You'll possess deep knowledge of security frameworks such as NIST and ISO, have experience operating in highly regulated environments, and demonstrate the ability to influence senior stakeholders across architecture, engineering and delivery teams. If you're passionate about securing modern cloud and AI platforms while enabling innovation at scale, this role offers the opportunity to make a genuine impact.

You’ll thrive here if…

If you can adapt from BAU to the ambiguous with ease, you’ll do well here. Change is never easy, so bring your commitment, grit and growth mindset.

Because we run lean, you’ll be expected to jump in and deliver across a variety of areas. Meaning, you’ll be closer to the action and executive decisions that influence where we go next.

If you’re someone that can hold their own, you’ll find AMP quite liberating. 

Why we think you’ll love working at AMP

Doing what we’ve always done is not an option, so your clever ideas will get airtime here. You’ll be encouraged to speak up and try new things. If they don’t work, we move on – better for it.

We know there’s no one way of doing things. So, you won’t have to sacrifice who you are or how you work to fit in here. We’re inclusive and flexible in many of the ways you’d expect. And in some of the ways you wouldn’t. As long as your health and wellbeing come first - at home and at work. 

In fact, most of what makes AMP such a welcoming, enjoyable place to work are our people. Wherever you go, you’ll find moments to connect, feel valued and do meaningful work. 

Whether it’s through our first-class leaders who are invested in you and your success. Through year-round opportunities to volunteer, fundraise and give back to the community. Or in the everyday challenges you face as we work together to strengthen this great organisation. Challenges that will stretch you, amplify your potential and compound the impact you have. 

We believe in the power of inclusion and diversity

We’re dedicated to fostering inclusion, diversity, and a warm feeling of belonging at AMP. It sparks creativity, ignites innovation, and turns up the dial on the quality of our decisions and performance. This not only makes our workplace more engaged, but also leads to better connections with our customers. 

We're your allies in the search for the perfect fit - when you apply, let us know how we can support you to put your best self forward during our selection process. 

We're also committed to enhancing employment opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, so we enthusiastically encourage candidates from these backgrounds to apply and explore our Reconciliation Plan on our website

Ready to create your tomorrow?

If you’re someone who sees opportunity where others see challenge, come and work with us in smart, progressive ways as we transform an iconic Australian brand for the future. And, through a series of career-defining moments, create your own tomorrow.

Don’t procrastinate! We review applications when we get them, and if we discover the ideal candidate, we may close the role earlier than the advertised close date.

Looking forward to meeting you.
