The inside scoop:
This is a great job for those of you who have come up through the ranks
of enterprise security engineering and have experience managing a
mission-critical security infrastructure team. In its current state,
the team is somewhat undisciplined and lacking a unified focus. The
manager will need to constructively infuse the team with structure,
unity and vision. The people are good, they just need someone to
provide support and strategic direction. It’s not a “cake walk” by any
means but the role is highly visible and extremely important within the
organization. The person that will successfully fill this role must have
ability, confidence, credibility and guts. The job reports to the
Director of Security and will interface heavily with the Enterprise
Policy and Architecture group.
If you are qualified and interested, drop a line to discuss. I also
have similar jobs with other clients in Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio.
Ohio seems to be the hot place for corporate security jobs. Go figure.
Best to all,
Jeff
