The Team is made up of the Cyber Strategy and Incident Response Team (CSIRT), the Cyber Compliance Team (CCT) and Cyber Programme team.

The five Cyber Policy Advisor roles will all sit within the Cyber Team, and will support various aspects of policy development, risk identification and projects across the transport cyber landscape. In all five roles, you will be expected to work flexibly and adapt to changing environments and priorities across the team, wider Division and Directorate, and will be part of the Department’s response to cyber incidents. **You can find more information about the roles available within the attached Role Profile.**
