Influence security investment decisions and build a culture of risk awareness across the company. About you * 7+ years of experience in information security with a strong focus on security risk management and GRC. * Demonstrated experience building or leading a security risk management program — not just contributing to one. * Hands-on experience with quantitative risk methodologies such as FAIR, risk scoring models, or statistical risk analysis.
