Deepa Amrat-Bradley
Working with Ricki and his team to build up a highly capable and uniquely skilled resource pool for cyber security strategy, was a real pleasure. The consultants asked all the right questions to create a very accurate shortlist of candidates for interview, worked hard to ensure full cycle due diligence was completed and supported the process effectively and efficiently. We were able to complete the full process and have a new team member in place within 4 weeks. Thank you Ricki et al for your sterling efforts to listen and deliver. The process was made so much easier by your efforts to do all the groundwork and necessary admin on referencing too! We are excited to continue to work with you, truly impressed by the talent you’ve helped us to recruit, value the excellent work you do and highly recommend you!

Ricki is very different from other recruiters I’ve known in the past. Once you explain to him what your career objectives are and what you are looking for in a role he will try to find a match for you rather than matching you to a role that has come up in an organisation. Ricki also has great community involvement and understanding of the security landscape. Highly recommend anyone looking for a good fit - candidates or organisations to reach out to him!

https://www.meetup.com/SecTalks-GoldCoast/ SecTalks is the largest non-profit security community that expands across multiple continents. SecTalks hosts free monthly sessions on technical security topics, and practical security challenges. We have a mix of sessions for both beginners and seasoned professionals. What happens at a SecTalks Gold Coast? Knowledge sharing, practical hands-on learning and networking. We arrange an informal catch-up where someone will present on an infosec related topic. We welcome learning from all areas of security, including: Penetration Testing, Red Teaming, Social Engineering, Phishing, Exploit development, Security Automation, DevSecOps/ SecDevOps / Secure Development, Application Security, Security Architecture, Cloud Security, Security Operations, SIEM, Incident Response, Threat Hunting, Forensics, Network Security, Governance, Risk Management, Compliance and more. Who is the Meetup for? Anyone interested in infosec. Experienced professionals through to newbies. It is not a place to come loaded with business cards and looking to sell services or products. How does SecTalks Gold Coast operate? Volunteers (@Codingo Michael Skelton, @CyberSecRicki Ricki Burke) run it for the benefit of local people coming together to share ideas, learn and network. Be patient with us :)
