It was bound to happen... most Head of Cybersecurity jobs in Government max around the £50/60k mark... You can easily get nearly twice that in private industry, with better perks.

There needs to be a monumental change to attract more and better candidates.

Seems it was outsourced to a private company so not a government bod then...

There will be a Head of Section security, who is part of the government. They are paid peanuts. You can have all the contracted SLA's from 3rd party vendors to try offload blame,but it still comes back to that Head of security.
