Full Job Description
Everforth ECS is seeking a Cybersecurity Operations Manager to work in our Washington, DC office / remote. The role is contingent upon additional funding.

We are seeking an experienced and driven Cybersecurity Operations Manager to lead two high-impact security teams: Endpoint Management and Threat Intelligence. This is a senior-level position within a mature, full-spectrum security operations organization that spans endpoint security, event monitoring, threat intelligence, and advanced incident response.

In this role, you will carry equal responsibility across both teams. That means leading a group that keeps the enterprise's endpoint environment - servers, workstations, and mobile devices - hardened, well-managed, and continuously improving, while simultaneously guiding analysts who track adversary behavior, process indicators of compromise, and deliver intelligence that shapes the organization's defensive strategy before threats have a chance to land.

This is a role for someone who leads from the front. You will work directly with executive leadership to define acceptable risk thresholds, translate complex technical findings into clear organizational guidance, and ensure both teams are operating with purpose, measurable goals, and a proactive mindset.

Salary Range: $155,000 - $165,000

  • Ability to develop, document, and execute repeatable operational metrics for endpoint security
