- Establish clear accountability, decision boundaries, escalation paths, and operating expectations across the Cyber AI program.
- Sponsor scalable security services that improve visibility, controls, monitoring, operational readiness, and resilience for enterprise AI environments.
- Sponsor responsible AI-enabled cybersecurity capabilities that improve security effectiveness, analyst experience, operational efficiency, and risk reduction.
- Guide investment, capacity, organizational design, and talent strategy based on demand, risk, service health, delivery performance, and measurable value.
- Ensure the program produces credible leadership reporting, operational evidence, risk transparency, and outcome measures.
- Build strong partnerships across cybersecurity, technology, business, governance, risk, privacy, legal, compliance, data, and operational stakeholders.
- Develop leaders and high-performing multidisciplinary teams with a culture of accountability, innovation, engineering discipline, and responsible AI use.
- Represent cybersecurity in enterprise AI forums and serve as a senior advisor on AI security opportunities, constraints, and emerging risk.
Requirements
- Progressive leadership experience across cybersecurity, technology, engineering, operations, risk, product delivery, or related disciplines.
- Experience setting strategy and leading complex programs or portfolios in a large, regulated, or critical-infrastructure environment.

- Understanding of AI, machine learning, generative AI, agents, cloud, data, software delivery, and cybersecurity sufficient to guide strategy and investment.
- Experience translating emerging technology risk and opportunity into clear executive direction, priorities, and accountable outcomes.
- Demonstrated judgment in balancing innovation, security, reliability, compliance, and business value.
- Executive communication skills and the ability to advise senior leaders, governance bodies, technical teams, and business stakeholders.
- Experience building leaders, developing multidisciplinary teams, and creating sustainable operating models.
- Bachelor’s degree in cybersecurity, computer science, engineering, business, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
- 15+ years of leadership experience in cybersecurity or technology, including responsibility for strategy, teams, investment, and cross-functional outcomes.
