Description:
The mandate targets a liaison profile between the cybersecurity function and the decision-makers of a business portfolio, rather than an operational technical execution role.
The wording of the mandate—tactical driver, guiding investments, ensuring consistency between security requirements and initiatives, sustainability of operations—positions the role as strategic support integrated into the portfolio, rather than a SOC analyst or security architect position.
The required experience combines a general IT foundation of 8 to 12 years with at least 5 years of focused specialization in cybersecurity, technology risk management, or security governance, which sets this profile apart from a pure technical specialist.
A significant portion of the qualifications focuses on simplification, influencing without hierarchical authority, and building trusting relationships with business partners, which underscores the advisory aspect of the role beyond technical expertise.
