  • Oversee information security project and program management, ensuring shared services are deployed appropriately to address known and emerging risks.
  • Oversee work intake processes for the information security team, designing workflows/intake processes that look at capacity and demand across teams holistically and ensuring visibility to the VP CISO on potential resource bottle necks based on internal and external demands.
  • Stay updated with the latest trends and developments in cybersecurity and adjust the strategy accordingly.
