    • Support RFPs, proposals, and security-related solution design with Account Management and Sales

    Drive process and reporting

    • Build service delivery processes aligned to ITIL and SOC best practices
    • Develop KPIs and reporting on alert volumes, incident trends, response times, and tool health
    • Identify and close gaps in staffing, tooling, and client coverage

    What you bring

    • Bachelor's degree in IT, Cybersecurity, Computer Science, or equivalent experience
    • 7+ years in cybersecurity, security operations, or infrastructure security, including 3+ years leading technical security teams
    • MSP, MSSP, or client-facing technology services background
    • Strong grasp of SOC operations, incident response, vulnerability management, and cloud/on-prem infrastructure (Azure, networking, Active Directory, Entra ID, Intune)
    • Hands-on or leadership experience with platforms like Rapid7, Microsoft 365 security tools, Defender, Cisco Umbrella, or Mimecast
    • Comfort communicating with executives, clients, and technical teams alike

    Nice to have

    • Experience leading managed SOC or MDR services
    • Familiarity with NIST CSF, CIS Controls, or ISO 27001
    • CISSP, CISM, Security+, CySA+, or equivalent
    • ServiceNow experience
