We are seeking a Business Information Security Officer (BISO) to lead the integration of security best practices within our Cloud Operations function. Working closely with the business leaders and the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), you will develop a deep understanding of the business in order to have specialized information security risk-based discussions.

The ideal candidate will have expertise in risk management, cloud security, and security awareness, along with a strong ability to balance business needs with security imperatives.
