About the Role

The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at the company is a pivotal leadership role responsible for advocating the overall information security technology needs and awareness planning. The CISO works closely with senior administration, academic leaders, and the campus community to provide vision and leadership in developing and supporting security initiatives. This includes directing the planning and implementation of enterprise IT systems, business operations, and facility defenses against security breaches and vulnerability issues. The ideal candidate for this role is a persuasive leader with a proven track record in IT security and compliance, particularly in a higher education environment. They must have excellent knowledge of technology environments, security policies and standards development, and a good understanding of computer systems integration capabilities. Experience with security incident response and recovery, as well as a strong working knowledge of information security policy and regulatory environment, is highly desirable. Candidates for the CISO position should have a Bachelor's degree in management information science or a related field, with professional certifications such as CISSP or CCISO being highly desirable. The role requires a leader who can effectively communicate security-related concepts to both technical and non-technical staff, and who has a demonstrated ability to work in a team/collaborative environment with a broad range of constituencies. Experience in advising and collaborating with senior management, as well as a history of success in working with internal and external auditors in a lead capacity, is also essential. The CISO must be able to exhibit maturity, reliability, composure, and stability under pressure, and be capable of handling on-the-job challenges with a constructive and feedback-oriented approach.
