Key Responsibilities
Lead and coordinate strategic and operational cybersecurity programs across SSG, acting as a principal point of contact for security leadership and business stakeholders.
Provide direction and oversight across security operations, incident management, application security, secure development, risk and compliance, cryptography, and security architecture.
Direct the response to cybersecurity incidents and emerging threats, coordinating specialist teams and driving timely risk mitigation and remediation.
Partner with executives, product managers, architects, engineers, DevOps teams, and developers to embed security into the design, delivery, and operation of global solutions.
Harmonize security practices across geographies, industries, technologies, and regulatory environments while accommodating relevant local and sector-specific requirements.
Define and monitor cybersecurity programs, governance mechanisms, metrics, KPIs, risks, dependencies, and executive-level reporting.
Advise senior leaders on cybersecurity priorities, investment needs, project assurance, operational risk, and the security status of services and solutions.
Promote a strong security culture through clear communication, education, mentoring, and collaboration with SSG, Corporate Security, and other business groups.
Position Requirements
Bachelor’s degree or equivalent practical experience in cybersecurity, information technology, computer science, engineering, risk management, or a related discipline.
Substantial experience leading operational cybersecurity programs in a complex technology, managed-services, enterprise-services, or similarly fast-moving environment.
Practical leadership experience in security operations and incident management, supported by broad knowledge of areas such as application security, architecture, infrastructure security, risk, compliance, and secure development.
Working knowledge of recognized security standards and control frameworks, such as ISO 27001, NIST Cybersecurity Framework, CIS Controls, or comparable industry frameworks.
Experience leading or coordinating geographically distributed teams and working across different industries, regulatory environments, technologies, and time zones.
Professional fluency in English, with excellent written and verbal communication skills and the ability to explain cybersecurity matters to technical and nontechnical audiences.
Strong executive stakeholder-management skills, including the judgment and credibility to influence senior leaders, challenge constructively, and translate security risks into business priorities.
A pragmatic, adaptable, and collaborative leadership style, with strong analytical, organizational, decision-making, mentoring, and financial-planning capabilities.
Relevant experience will be assessed according to its scope, breadth, and impact. Candidates with approximately 8 to 10 years of highly relevant experience may have the required maturity and capability, so years of experience should not be used as a strict stand-alone screening criterion. Profiles focused mainly on governance, risk, and compliance should also demonstrate meaningful operational security or incident-management leadership.
