About the Role

Headfarmer seeks a seasoned Cyber Security Strategist and Risk Management Leader to join our team in Phoenix, Arizona. This full-time, on-site position offers a competitive salary of $120,000 - $180,000 per year.

Job Description

This critical role is responsible for developing and implementing comprehensive cybersecurity policies and procedures to safeguard Headfarmer's assets from internal and external threats. As the primary stakeholder for Information Security, you will oversee the formulation, implementation, and operational support of security frameworks, methodologies, policies, standards, and procedures related to operational risk management and IT audit processes.

You will actively monitor the security environment, identify potential threats, and respond to intrusion attempts to defend against cyber risks. Additionally, you will communicate effectively with various stakeholders, including technical and non-technical personnel, to identify improvement areas and work closely with cross-functional teams to orchestrate mitigation plans.

The successful candidate will serve as the primary contact for all SOX IT Audit activities, coordinating with Internal Audit, external auditors, IT, and business units to identify and address potential SOX gaps or deficiencies.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and coordinate the development of the Information Security improvement plan, identifying strategic goals and paths to achieve them.
  • Cultivate and maintain stakeholder relationships across the organization, identifying cybersecurity threats and establishing remediation activities.
  • Manage the SOX and IT Audit process, particularly in a public company environment, to address gap remediation and foster long-term improvements in systems/applications.
  • Collaborate with senior management and business units to assess and support organizational risk mitigation needs through strategic and quality review solutions.
  • Evaluate past InfoSec assessments, develop corrective action plans, integrate roadmap solutions, and regularly report on recommendations.
  • Partner with the business to measure and assess the success of risk programs, ensuring adherence to information security frameworks, policies, and best practices.
  • Stay current on regulatory compliance standards, security trends, and best practices, and integrate these standards with minimal impact on business operations.
Qualifications

To be considered for this exciting opportunity, applicants must possess a Bachelor's degree in a technical or business field, preferably with a Master's degree or MBA. A minimum of 15 years of experience in Information Security, with 8+ years in a leadership role, preferably in a public company environment, is required. Current cybersecurity certifications (e.g., CISSP, CISM, CISA) indicating knowledge of security frameworks and best practices are also essential.

Proven ability to communicate effectively with technical and non-technical stakeholders across various business units, experience in Security Operations (e.g., AV/Malware, SIEM, DLP, patch management) with a focus on consistent SLA performance, and proficiency in log collection and analysis for investigations are highly valued.

What We Offer

In addition to a competitive salary and benefits package, we offer a dynamic work environment that fosters growth and collaboration. This full-time, on-site position requires full-time presence in the Phoenix office. Remote work or telecommuting options are not available for this role.
