In this critical leadership position, you will be responsible for developing and overseeing our organization's comprehensive cybersecurity risk management program. This role will be responsible for developing and implementing a robust cybersecurity risk management strategy aligned with industry best practices and evolving threats. To be successful in this role, the Director of Risk Management must be able to clearly communicate cyber risks to all levels of the organization.

This leader will be key in implementing a risk management program that results in the identification, prioritization, and reduction of cybersecurity and ensures compliance for all in-scope facilities. This trusted advisor will help raise the protection bar by building strong relationships with technical and non-technical stakeholders to make risk visible, facilitate well-informed decision, and drive accountability. The ability to clearly communicate and report cybersecurity risk, and manage organizational relationships, will be key to the success of this role. In addition, this role must be able to establish a outcome-driven metrics approach to risk management and utilize protection level agreements as a mechanism to establish risk thresholds.

This position is expected to promote a culture that supports operating with an acceptable level of risk, developing standardized risk management criteria including but not limited to threats, vulnerabilities, likelihood, impact, and maturity, establishing risk tolerance, planning risk analysis (e.g. Meaningful Use Security Risk Analyses, HIPAA), and managing risk assessment activities (e.g. HIPAA, PCI, NIST Cyber Security Framework). In addition, this position will ensure all parts of the risk management program are documented. It will also ensure a strategy for using and maintaining the risk register to prioritize risk reduction actions and activities is implemented. This position is also responsible for evolving the organization's current risk treatment framework. This position is also responsible for collaborating with Information Security on the development, configuration, and implementation of the Risk Management Archer GRC application.
