The Principal Cybersecurity Advisor, Information Security Strategy & Analytics is a senior individual contributor who partners with the ISRM leadership team, including the CISO, to shape the function's strategic direction and build the narrative, documentary, and measurement foundation that enables sound executive decision-making. This role translates business priorities, risk insights, regulatory drivers, and delivery realities into security strategy, multi-year roadmaps, investment recommendations, and portfolio narratives that guide leadership decisions. 

This role has two defining requirements. First, the ability to communicate complex security strategy clearly, compellingly, and credibly to senior and executive audiences, both in writing and in person. Second, deep enough security practitioner experience to engage with credibility on strategic priorities, risk tradeoffs, and investment decisions without requiring translation. The ideal candidate has lived the work they will now help shape.

• Define and maintain ISRM's strategic direction, including strategic priorities, target state, and multi-year roadmap, in close partnership with ISRM leadership. 

• Translate business priorities, threat and risk insights, regulatory drivers, and security delivery realities into strategic recommendations, investment proposals, and tradeoff analyses for leadership decision-making.

• Track ISRM's security maturity progress against established frameworks such as NIST CSF, partnering with technical teams on assessment preparation and ensuring findings are accurately reflected in strategic priorities, roadmap inputs, and remediation planning.
