This role is pivotal in ensuring the business unit's compliance with security policies and standards, and in enhancing the security posture in alignment with service delivery and business partnerships. The successful candidate will be a trusted advisor, combining business acumen with technical knowledge to collect business requirements, assess risks, and provide guidance on security matters. Responsibilities include developing a deep understanding of business unit processes, overseeing various security initiatives, and acting as the local security contact for a range of business functions. The VP BISO will also lead the development of unit-specific security strategies, drive the implementation of security policies, and provide regular reporting on the cybersecurity status. Applicants for the VP BISO of Cyber Security position at the company should have a minimum of 13-18 years of professional experience, with a Bachelor's degree in a relevant field or equivalent experience.
