• The ability to translate risk into action—identifying threats and implementing meaningful controls
• Fluency in modern tech such as cloud platforms, network protection, encryption, and identity management
• Proven capacity to lead breach response, manage escalations, and guide recovery
• Strong project leadership with the discipline to deliver on-time, on-budget, and in line with business outcomes
• Exceptional communication skills, with the poise and clarity to present security strategy confidently to all audiences
• Executive presence—you bring calm, insight, and influence to high-stakes conversations.

What Will Make You Successful

• You think holistically connecting security strategy to business vision
• You balance compliance and creativity, protecting systems while enabling innovation
• You bring curiosity, humility, and accountability to complex challenges
• You’re a bridge-builder—able to align IT, legal, risk, and operational teams around shared goals

• You act with integrity, foster trust, and inspire confidence.
