    Backed by a top-tier private equity firm, this is a unique and high-impact opportunity to take the helm as the Director of Cybersecurity. Reporting directly to the CIO, you will drive information security strategy, governance, and operations across a rapidly expanding organization in the United States.

    We are seeking a proven leader with deep expertise not only in building a robust Information Security Program from the ground up but also in the strategic deployment of best-in‑class tools. This role requires a professional comfortable partnering with external security firms and integrators to rapidly harden our overall security posture at scale, with a critical focus on the high-volume integration of mid‑market acquisitions into our standardized platform.

    Why This Opportunity?

    • Cybersecurity Focus: Direct mandate to lead and evolve the enterprise cybersecurity strategy.
    • High‑Growth M&A Environment: Directly influence security integration for high‑velocity expansion.
    • Modern Tech Stack Deployment: Oversee the implementation and optimization of cutting‑edge security tools.
    • C‑Suite Visibility: Direct influence and visibility at the leadership level.
    • Total Rewards: Competitive salary, strong benefits, and significant leadership runway.

    In This Role, You Will

    • M&A & Integration Leadership: Own the security strategy and execution for integrating newly acquired mid‑market companies, standardizing their security controls and platforms.
    • Program & Roadmap: Define and execute the comprehensive cybersecurity roadmap aligned to NIST CSF 2.0 & CIS Controls.
    • Security Operations (SecOps) Excellence: Oversee all aspects of modern SecOps, including SOC/MDR operations, vulnerability management, threat‑mitigation actions, incident response, and DR/BCP readiness.
    • Strategic Partnerships: Collaborate with external vendors and partners to deploy and manage a suite of best‑in‑class security tools, accelerating the enhancement of our security architecture.
    • Governance & Compliance: Govern third‑party risk, security tooling, and architecture standards, ensuring rigorous compliance with regulatory requirements (PCI, CJIS, CPRA/CCPA/CPA, etc.).
    • Security Culture: Champion a security‑first culture across the organization, delivering measurable improvements in the enterprise cyber risk posture.

    What You Bring

    • Deep InfoSec Leadership: 8+ years of progressive Information Security leadership experience.
    • M&A Integration: Proven success building and integrating security programs in M&A‑intensive, high‑growth environments.
    • Modern Cyber Tech Stack: Hands‑on oversight of implementing modern security solutions. Ideally, direct experience with platforms like NinjaOne, Adaptive, and Rapid7 is highly preferred.
    • SecOps Command: Strong, demonstrable background in leading Security Operations, incident response, and vulnerability management.
    • GCR Expertise: Strong command of governance, risk, compliance, and cloud security architecture.
    • Certifications: Industry certifications such as CISSP / CISM are strongly preferred.
    • Leadership Qualities: Influential communication, strong business‑alignment skills, and an ability to lead through change and build trust across all organizational levels.

    Note: Only candidates authorized to work in the U.S. for any employer without current or future sponsorship will be considered, as sponsorship is not available at this time.

    Location & Work Style:
