  • Serve as a technical point of contact for clients, addressing and managing their technical requirements, security concerns, and risk management needs.
  • Conduct comprehensive risk assessments of information systems, applications, business processes, and underlying technical infrastructure and clearly document identified risks with accompanied compensating controls that address security gaps when standard controls are not feasible. Monitor the effectiveness of compensating controls and recommend improvements as needed to maintain compliance and reduce residual risk across diverse technical environments.
  • Stay current with emerging threats, regulatory changes, and industry best practices in risk management, compensating controls, and evolving enterprise technologies.
  • Assist with incident response planning and post-incident risk evaluation, leveraging broad technical knowledge to assess impacts and recommend improvements.

Qualifications/Skills Required

  • Bachelor's degree in Cyber Security, Information Technology, Computer Science, or a related field with broad technical knowledge spanning all aspects of a modern enterprise environment.
  • 5+ years of experience in information technology and / or information security, with a strong focus on enabling business objectives.
  • Demonstrated experience working with information technology, information security, compliance, legal, business teams, and clients to assess and document security risks and compensating controls.
  • Advanced knowledge of risk management frameworks (e.g., NIST, ISO 27001, CIS20) and regulatory requirements relevant to the financial sector is a plus.
  • Exceptional analytical, communication, and report-writing skills, with the ability to translate complex technical issues into clear, actionable recommendations for both technical and non-technical audiences.

Desired Skills

  • Experience in the financial services sector or advisory work with a leading consulting firm.
  • Familiarity with the design and evaluation of compensating controls in regulated environments.
  • Ability to translate technical risks into business impacts and actionable recommendations.
