About the Role:

We are seeking a Program Manager to support a high-visibility, multi-year cybersecurity program. This role is critical to driving strategic security initiatives, ensuring alignment across stakeholders, and delivering measurable outcomes. You'll work closely with executive leadership-including the CISO, senior stakeholders, and cross-functional teams-to manage projects, track progress, and communicate impact effectively.

This is a hands-on role for someone who can bring structure and clarity to complex security programs, take ownership of reporting and deliverables, and thrive in a fast-paced environment.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead and coordinate projects within the broader cybersecurity program portfolio.
  • Collaborate with the CISO, senior leaders, and technical teams to develop and present program updates.
  • Own the creation of executive-level presentations and reports that tell a clear, data-driven story.
  • Track and manage program milestones, risks, and dependencies using tools like Jira, ServiceNow, and PowerBI.
  • Support strategic planning and roadmap development for cybersecurity initiatives.
  • Drive cross-functional alignment and communication across security, engineering, and operations teams.
  • Provide programmatic visibility through dashboards, reports, and regular updates.
Required Skills & Experience:
  • 3-5 years of experience in program or project management, ideally in cybersecurity or IT.
  • Strong understanding of cybersecurity principles, frameworks, and tools.
  • Excellent PowerPoint and storytelling skills-able to translate technical data into executive-ready content.
  • Proficiency with Jira, Excel, PowerBI, and ServiceNow.
  • Experience working with or presenting to executive leadership.
  • Ability to work independently, manage ambiguity, and drive results in a fast-paced environment.
  • Technical background or familiarity with security tools and concepts is a strong plus.
