  • Create and manage RAID logs, status trackers, action-item registers, and program governance documentation.

  • Establish clear accountability through RACI matrices, decision-making frameworks, and escalation processes.

  • Identify program risks, gaps, blockers, and dependencies, and drive mitigation strategies with cross-functional stakeholders.

  • Coordinate regulatory compliance enhancement activities to support audit readiness and enterprise risk mitigation.

  • Build and deliver executive-level PowerPoint presentations, program status reports, and leadership updates.

  • Analyze program data using Excel, including pivot tables, to identify trends, risks, progress, and areas requiring attention.

  • Present program status, risks, financial considerations, and key decisions to senior leadership and C-level stakeholders.

  • Partner with global teams to drive alignment, resolve competing priorities, and maintain program momentum.

  • Coordinate external vendors, advisors, and internal resources supporting program initiatives.

  • Translate cybersecurity and regulatory requirements into actionable workstreams and operational deliverables.

  • Drive accountability across stakeholders without direct reporting authority.

  • Ensure program documentation, governance processes, and reporting support long-term compliance and operational resilience.

Minimum Requirements:

  • Proven experience leading large-scale, complex enterprise programs involving multiple workstreams and cross-functional stakeholders.

  • Experience managing approximately 10–15 concurrent workstreams or similarly complex enterprise initiatives.

  • Strong program management experience within technology, cybersecurity, risk, compliance, or enterprise transformation environments.

  • Demonstrated experience coordinating global or highly matrixed enterprise teams.

  • Strong hands-on Smartsheet experience for program planning, tracking, and reporting.

  • Advanced Microsoft PowerPoint skills, including developing polished executive-level presentations and status decks.

  • Strong Microsoft Excel skills, including pivot tables, reporting, and data analysis.

  • Experience maintaining RAID logs, action-item trackers, integrated project plans, and program governance documentation.

  • Ability to proactively manage large volumes of action items, dependencies, risks, and deliverables.

  • Experience presenting directly to senior leadership and C-level executives.

  • Strong executive presence and exceptional written and verbal communication skills.

  • Ability to influence stakeholders without direct authority and drive accountability across multiple teams.

  • Strong critical-thinking, analytical, and data-driven decision-making skills.

  • Ability to identify risks and blockers, determine appropriate next steps, and drive resolution independently.

  • Highly proactive, organized, and detail-oriented, with strong follow-through.

  • Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, fast-paced environments with minimal oversight.

  • Strong understanding of enterprise cybersecurity governance, risk management, and compliance concepts.

  • Ability to work CST business hours and accommodate occasional domestic travel.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Direct experience managing NIS2 or DORA compliance initiatives.

  • Experience supporting enterprise cyber resilience or regulatory transformation programs.

  • Familiarity with cybersecurity governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) frameworks.

  • Experience with third-party risk management, cloud security, business continuity, or data governance.

  • Experience leading global regulatory compliance or audit readiness initiatives.

  • Background in consulting, technology, data centers, or highly regulated industries.

  • Experience supporting external regulatory advisors or consulting partners.

  • Experience operationalizing cybersecurity controls and governance frameworks across business functions.
