Director, Cybersecurity Operations & Risk Governance

Qualifications

• Required
• Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8–10 years of progressive cybersecurity experience, including 3–5 years in a leadership or program-ownership role spanning both security operations and risk governance.
• Demonstrated experience operating a SOC/detection function using enterprise SIEM/XDR tooling (Microsoft Sentinel and Defender XDR strongly preferred) and building a cybersecurity risk governance program (risk registers, NIST CSF mapping, recurring board-level reporting), with direct incident command experience.
• Direct experience in a regulated financial services environment, with working knowledge of the SEC Cybersecurity Rule, Regulation S-P, GLBA, and FINRA; a demonstrated track record as a hands-on mentor who has grown analysts into senior contributors, even within a small team; and CISSP required (or in progress with a 12-month commitment).
• Preferred:
• Experience in asset/investment management, and familiarity with the Microsoft E5 security stack (Defender XDR, Sentinel, Purview, Entra ID, Intune) and/or PAM/EDR controls (e.g., ThreatLocker).
• Additional certifications (CISM, CRISC, GSEC, GCIH, or CCSP), exposure to AI governance frameworks (e.g., NIST AI RMF), or experience supporting institutional DDQ/RFP processes and affiliate/parent-company reporting (e.g., Natixis).
• Special requirements:
• Given Incident Commander responsibilities, this role requires availability to respond to cybersecurity incidents outside of normal business hours, including nights and weekends, with occasional travel to support regulatory exams or client due diligence.

Benefits include, but are not limited to; medical, prescription drug, dental and vision insurance, paid time off, profit sharing plan, 401k plan, tuition reimbursement, commuter and holistic wellness benefits along with volunteer programs.
• Actual annual base salaries may vary based on factors including but not limited to education, training, experience, and other job-related factors.
