Head of AI Security

SEEK is adopting AI at pace and with purpose. As our platforms evolve to support millions across APAC, ensuring AI is safe, ethical and aligned with our purpose—Always On, Always Safe—has never been more important. As our first Head of AI Security, you’ll define how we build and scale AI securely, protecting trust while enabling bold, responsible innovation across the organisation.

Why This Role?

✔ Build a brand-new capability at the centre of SEEK’s AI transformation
✔ Influence platform, product and organisational decisions at executive level
✔ Shape how AI is adopted safely across a complex, high-impact ecosystem
✔ Work with leaders in Security, AI, Engineering and Product to set the future

This role is uniquely positioned: a senior technology leader shaping strategy, governance and capability for one of SEEK’s most critical areas of innovation.

What You’ll Be Doing

✓ Establishing and leading SEEK’s AI Security function from the ground up
✓ Defining the frameworks, standards and controls for secure AI adoption
✓ Translating complex AI risks into clear business impact for senior leaders

You will define the standards, partnerships and practices that guide how AI is used safely, ethically and at scale. Your impact will be visible across our platforms, our products and the millions of people who rely on us.
