The role includes raising and responding to tickets associated with Tenable on the Remedy/Helix system, testing the platform after environmental changes, and leading disaster recovery efforts during US business hours. Compliance scans will be arranged and run on Tenable, and the candidate will provide advice and guidance to IT towers on best practices for using Tenable. Furthermore, the Senior Tenable Admin will help create necessary dashboards, set up reporting mechanisms, and produce reports for senior management. Documentation of operations performed related to Tenable must be maintained and kept up to date.
