  • Understanding of security frameworks - ISO 27001/2, COBIT, NIST, etc.
  • Demonstrated experience with stakeholder management, program management, and leading through influence.
  • Excellent analytical skills - you love solving problems that have no obvious solution.
  • Ability to understand security and data risks and explain them to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Familiarity with generally-accepted security methods, concepts, and techniques.
  • Experience communicating with C-level staff and/or Board of Directors.

Nice to haves:
