  9. Support clients in conducting and maintaining cybersecurity program self-assessments.

Requirements

  2. Demonstrated presentation skills, including confidence and comfort in video calls and in front of audiences both small and large. Ability to participate in-person with clients.
  3. Exceptional interpersonal skills and ability to build relationships with senior-level executives as well as negotiate with and influence both internal and external decision makers.
  4. Strong leadership skills – clients must value your advice and role, and recognize you as one of their trusted advisors.
  5. Proven ability to adapt to new technologies and learn quickly.
  6. Experience supporting Private Equity-backed companies or working directly with/for PE firms managing technology or security operations for portfolio investments, demonstrating the ability to match the rapid pace of these companies and manage multiple priorities.
