Every day offers a variety of exciting challenges and exceptional opportunities played out on a national and often international stage. You’ll be amongst some of the best and brightest – all with a common goal of working to keep people safe.

PSU work collaboratively with partners, stakeholders and associated advisors to ensure timely security sweeps occur to maintain the integrity of the CT estate with partner accreditation and enhance security through the development of administrative, technical and physical security controls.
The role of the Security Engagement & Coordination Unit (SECU) is to manage the coordinated implementation of the SOCs strategic framework and work plan, both nationally and locally. The SECU will establish mechanisms for regional integration and networking to develop active partnerships across national CTP Compliance functions.
