About the role

Hofstra University is seeking a Director of Information Security to lead the institution’s security program, governance, and risk management efforts.

The role requires strong leadership, communication, and collaboration with diverse campus stakeholders, along with a proven track record in information security in higher education or similar environments.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
