About the Role

The Company is in search of a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) to spearhead its information security and IT functions. The CISO will be a key member of the senior leadership team, responsible for the development, execution, and continuous enhancement of enterprise-wide cybersecurity and IT strategies. This role demands a leader with a strong background in modern security practices, regulatory and compliance expertise, and a deep understanding of technical aspects to support the company's mission and technology-first culture. The successful candidate will oversee governance, risk, and compliance, security engineering, security operations, identity and access management, and IT operations, ensuring that all are in line with business objectives and growth ambitions. To excel in this position, candidates must have a minimum of 10 years' of leadership experience in cybersecurity, IT, and risk management, particularly in highly regulated industries. A proven track record in building and scaling security and IT teams, expertise in cloud-native environments, and modern security technologies are essential. The CISO will also be expected to have strong cross-functional leadership skills, the ability to translate technical concepts for business and legal audiences, and experience in product security initiatives. Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CISA, or equivalent are highly desirable. The role requires a strategic thinker who can foster a high-performing culture, represent security and IT initiatives at the executive level, and drive awareness of the critical role of product security across the organization.
