To be successful in this role, you will combine deep cybersecurity governance, risk, and compliance expertise with strong client‑facing leadership and practical technical knowledge. You will translate complex security risks into actionable recommendations, oversee consistent delivery of cybersecurity services, and help clients improve their security maturity through risk assessments, remediation planning, and continuous compliance monitoring.
