This senior, remote role is pivotal in representing the company as a credible, practitioner-level security and GRC voice in the field. The successful candidate will be responsible for engaging in strategic customer conversations, leading industry events, and contributing to the broader security and GRC community. Key responsibilities include partnering with sales, customer success, and marketing teams on enterprise opportunities, leading executive briefings, and sharing insights through various channels. The role demands a professional with a strong background in security and GRC, including a deep understanding of compliance frameworks, excellent communication skills, and a genuine reputation within the security and GRC community. Applicants for the Field Chief Information Security Officer position at the company should have a minimum of 15 years' experience in security and GRC, with at least 10 years in leadership roles and 5 years in a CISO or equivalent senior position. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record of thought leadership, be comfortable with the pace of enterprise sales cycles, and have a strong grasp of security and GRC in SaaS and cloud-native environments. The role requires a strategic thinker who can operate with a high level of autonomy, is comfortable with ambiguity, and can provide direction on high-stakes security and GRC issues. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, or CCSP are a plus, and the candidate should be open to regular travel. The company values a diverse, mission-driven culture and is looking for someone who is customer-obsessed, competitive, and brings a unique perspective to the team.Hiring Manager TitleSVP, Security & CISOFunctionsInformation Technology
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.
