Description du poste

Consultant

Location: Brussels (twice/week)

Languages: NL/EN/FR

Your role: The strategic guide for customers. As a Customer-facing CISO, you are the strategic conscience and trusted advisor of customers. You are not operating the controls yourself, but you help determine the course. You translate complex cyber threats into clear board-level language and help think about how cyber security can support customers' business strategy.

Whether it concerns a managed security service, a CISO or GRC-as-a-Service role, or consultancy: you ensure that customers are relieved of their concerns as much as possible in a constantly evolving security landscape. The technical implementation? For that, you seamlessly coordinate with specialised security teams and Managed Services.

What will you do?

Strategy & Roadmap

You develop and implement a cyber security policy that fits the customer's DNA.

You outline clear long-term roadmaps.

You translate abstract strategy into tactical action plans and supervise the execution.

High-Level Governance

You are the sparring partner at C-level and participate in board meetings and risk committees.

You set up the security governance (who does what, how do we report?) and ensure cohesion between security, privacy, and business continuity.

Risk Management & Compliance

You initiate risk analyses (IT, OT, IoT) and make risks understandable for management.

You guide customers through the landscape of laws and regulations (such as NIS2) and prepare them for audits and ISO certifications.

Management of security incidents & Services

In the event of serious incidents, you maintain oversight and calm. You coordinate the crisis communication while operational teams close the leak.

You advise customers on the optimal use of SOC and monitoring services, and other security services.

Impact & Communication

You increase security awareness within the organisation and present clear reports on risks and maturity.

You are the face of security: the central point of contact for all stakeholders.

Who are you? You are a bridge builder. You combine in-depth substantive knowledge with the diplomatic skills of a top consultant.

Background & Knowledge

Academic working and thinking level.

Expertise in GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance) and frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST, and CIS.

Strong knowledge of legislation (including NIS2, GDPR) and IT Service Management (ITIL).

Experience with ICT architectures is a must; knowledge of OT/ICS and IoT is a strong advantage.

Personality & Skills

Strategic thinker: You quickly fathom organisations and immediately see where the vulnerabilities and opportunities lie.

Strong communicator: You speak the language of the board and the language of the engineer. You present persuasively and write clearly.

Diplomatic & Steadfast: You can handle resistance, dare to push back when necessary, and remain independent in your advice.

Connector: You enjoy collaborating with sales, architects, and engineers to build the best solution for the customer.
