Job description:About the role
The role is designed for an individual who brings broad cybersecurity fluency, rigorous analytical capability, and the organizational maturity to operate effectively in a large and complex enterprise. It requires someone who can form well-grounded positions on consequential cybersecurity topics and exercise the cross-functional leadership necessary to move the cybersecurity function forward on matters that cut across cybersecurity domains, teams, and organizational boundaries.
Key responsibilities
Cybersecurity research and insight development
● Conduct substantive research on emerging, strategic, or complex cybersecurity topics of relevance to Enterprise Cybersecurity and the wider enterprise, leveraging existing organizational capabilities, established information sources, and relevant functions to inform research efforts and actively contribute insights back to these resources.● Produce position papers, briefing materials, and decision papers grounded in evidence, structured analysis, and clear enterprise relevance.● Translate complex or unfamiliar cybersecurity topics into clear implications, considered options, and recommended direction.● Ensure that leadership discussions on material cybersecurity topics are supported by rigorous external awareness and well-structured analysis.
Coordination, alignment, and validation● Drive alignment across cybersecurity teams and relevant stakeholders on horizontal topics, cross-cutting priorities, and significant cybersecurity interdependencies.● Identify fragmentation, gaps, or misalignment across the cybersecurity function and lead efforts to achieve practical convergence.● Translate agreed leadership priorities into defined actions, clear ownership, and structured follow-up.● Monitor progress on cross-functional and high-priority cybersecurity topics, and surface matters that require clarification, escalation, or direct intervention.● Lead and facilitate selected discussions, workshops, and follow-through activities to build and sustain shared direction.● Represent Enterprise Cybersecurity in designated forums where institutional credibility, informed perspective, and reliable follow-through are required.
Management team contribution● Serve as a full member of the Enterprise Cybersecurity Management Team.● Contribute cross-domain cybersecurity awareness, enterprise perspective, and sound judgment to leadership deliberations and collective priorities.
What success looks like
This role is performing well when:● Leadership discussions on significant cybersecurity topics are well-prepared, analytically grounded, and result in clear direction.● Alignment across cybersecurity teams and adjacent stakeholders is stronger and more durable, with fewer gaps and less friction on cross-cutting topics.● Cross-functional priorities that require sustained coordination move forward with defined ownership, visible progress, and disciplined follow-through.● The Enterprise Cybersecurity Management Team benefits from a member who strengthens its collective judgment, range, and capacity to act on complex matters.● Relevant external developments across the threat landscape, regulatory environment, and industry practice are identified and interpreted with sufficient lead time to inform leadership decisions.
Candidate profile
We are seeking a senior professional who combines substantive cybersecurity knowledge with strong analytical capability, organizational maturity, and demonstrated effectiveness in complex, multi-stakeholder environments. The right candidate brings broad range across cybersecurity disciplines, forms well-reasoned judgments on difficult topics, communicates with authority and precision, and can lead coordination and alignment efforts without relying on formal positional authority.
Required qualifications and experience● Significant experience in cybersecurity and technology risk within a large and complex organization.● Broad understanding across multiple cybersecurity disciplines, including technical and operational cybersecurity, security architecture, secure digital product development, governance, and risk management.● Demonstrated ability to investigate emerging or complex cybersecurity topics thoroughly and translate findings into clear analysis, recommendations, and leadership material.● Strong critical thinking and structured problem-solving capability.● Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with demonstrated ability to produce high-quality materials for senior audiences.
Preferred experience● Experience developing position papers, decision proposals, and executive briefings on complex cybersecurity topics.● Experience interpreting and normalizing analyst research, industry practice, and market developments and translating them into actionable enterprise cybersecurity guidance.● Experience operating across both the strategic and operational dimensions of cybersecurity.
Leadership expectations
In this role, the individual is expected to:● Exercise leadership through institutional credibility, analytical rigor, and clarity of communication.● Bring consistent depth and precision to research, analysis, and judgment.
