Job description
About the job
Job title: Vice President of Cybersecurity
Job type: Perm
Role Location: Florida (Hybrid or Onsite) preferred. Remote considered nationally for the right leader.
The company: Signify Technology is retained on a confidential search for a Vice President of Cybersecurity. Our client is an established, growing organization that has outgrown a security function built for a smaller company and is now investing in executive-level ownership of it. This is a build-and-lead seat, reporting into the CIO, CTO, or executive leadership, with accountability for the security strategy, the budget, the tooling, and the team. Because this is a confidential search, the client is named on a first conversation. Senior leaders who would like to understand the opportunity before formally applying are welcome to reach out directly and we will handle the conversation discreetly.
Role and Responsibilities
Own the enterprise cybersecurity strategy, roadmap, and budget, and present both to the executive team and the board.
Lead, grow, and retain the security organization, including hiring, mentoring, and succession planning.
Own the security operations function: detection, monitoring, incident response, and threat intelligence.
Direct the identity and access management program, including privileged access and zero-trust initiatives.
Own governance, risk, and compliance across the frameworks relevant to the business (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, PCI DSS, HIPAA, or equivalent).
Lead the incident response program end to end, including tabletop exercises, escalation paths, and post-incident review.
Set standards for cloud security, application security, and secure development practices in partnership with engineering.
Own third-party and vendor risk management, security tooling evaluation, and contract negotiation.
Build the security awareness program and drive a security culture across the wider business.
Serve as the executive point of contact for auditors, regulators, cyber insurers, and enterprise customers.
Qualifications
10 or more years in cybersecurity, with 5 or more years leading security teams at manager, director, or above.
Proven ownership of an enterprise security strategy and its budget, not just execution against someone else's.
Track record of building, leading, and retaining a security team.
Deep, hands-on background in security operations, incident response, and identity and access management.
Demonstrated experience taking an organization through a recognized framework or audit (SOC 2, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, PCI DSS, or HIPAA).
Strong cloud security expertise across AWS, Azure, or GCP.
Experience presenting risk to executives and boards in business terms rather than technical ones.
Excellent judgment under pressure and a track record of leading through a live incident.
Legally authorized to work in the United States.
Compensation
Competitive base salary plus performance bonus
Medical, dental, and vision coverage
401(k) with employer match
Paid time off and paid holidays
Executive ownership of the security function, its budget, and its roadmap
A team you build and lead directly
Direct line to the executive team and board exposure
