Delivery Manager| Cyber Security

About This Role

About the Company:
ProofOps is a cybersecurity services company helping organizations across the UAE and Middle East strengthen their security posture through practical, outcome-driven programs. Our work spans security operations, incident response, assessments, and advisory—often in complex, time-sensitive environments where delivery quality and stakeholder alignment matter.

We’re looking for a Project Manager / Delivery Manager who can bring structure, pace, and accountability to cybersecurity engagements—owning execution from kickoff to closure.

About the Role:
As a Project Manager (Cybersecurity), you will lead the planning and delivery of multiple security engagements in parallel. You will coordinate internal and customer stakeholders, manage scope/timelines/risks, and ensure projects are delivered on time, within agreed scope, and with high customer satisfaction. This role is ideal for someone organized, proactive, and comfortable managing technical workstreams without being the deepest technical expert in the room.

Responsibilities:

• Own end-to-end delivery for cybersecurity projects: kickoff → planning → execution → tracking → reporting → closeout.
• Build and maintain project plans, milestones, RAID logs (risks, actions, issues, decisions), and stakeholder communications.
• Coordinate cross-functional teams (sales, pre-sales, engineers, SOC/IR, third parties) to unblock delivery.
• Manage scope control: change requests, assumptions/dependencies, and alignment with SOW/contract deliverables.
• Run customer governance: status calls, steering updates, minutes/actions, and escalation management.
• Ensure quality of delivery artifacts: reports, handover documents, runbooks, and acceptance sign-offs.
• Track utilization and timelines; maintain accurate internal reporting and forecasts for delivery leadership.
• Drive continuous improvement: templates, playbooks, and delivery processes across recurring engagement types.

Requirements:

Must-Have:

• 4–8+ years in project management (IT/security/technology services preferred).
• Proven experience managing multiple concurrent projects with external customers and internal technical teams.
• Strong stakeholder management: confident with IT managers through senior leadership/executives.
• Strong planning and execution discipline: timelines, dependencies, change control, escalation.
• Excellent written and verbal communication; comfortable producing customer-ready status reports.

Nice-to-Have (Preferred):

• Cybersecurity project exposure (SOC/MDR onboarding, EDR deployments, IR retainers, vulnerability management, VAPT programs, firewall/network security, cloud security, GRC initiatives).
• Familiarity with security concepts (MITRE ATT&CK, incident response lifecycle, vulnerability remediation workflows, logging/SIEM basics).
• Certifications such as PMP, PRINCE2, Agile/Scrum, ITIL (any combination).

Benefits:

• Competitive compensation + performance incentives.
• Hybrid flexibility: practical hybrid/WFH setup around customer workshops and key project milestones.
• Training & certification budget: annual budget for PM and cybersecurity learning (PMP/PRINCE2/Agile + security fundamentals).
• High-impact work: lead projects that improve customer security outcomes across the region.
• Strong team collaboration: direct access to engineering, SOC/IR, and leadership.
• Growth path: progression into Senior PM / Program Manager / Delivery Lead based on performance.
• Culture: execution-focused, cyber-first team that values accountability and getting things done.

How to Apply:
Send your CV and a short note covering:

• The largest/most complex projects you’ve managed (scope, stakeholders, outcomes).
• Your cybersecurity/IT security exposure.
