Summary

What You'll Do

• Financial Planning, Budgeting, and Analytics: Lead the annual security budget compilation process by conducting structured interviews with security management and enterprise risk stakeholders to accurately capture initiatives, run-rate costs, headcount needs, and capital or operating splits. Validate assumptions, timelines, and dependencies; document rationale and risk ranges. Deliver monthly budget-to-actual reporting and analytics. Produce variance analyses (volume, rate, timing, and scope drivers) and year-over-year trending. Create dashboards and executive-ready summaries highlighting key insights, risks, and required actions.
• Variance Reviews and Financial Tracking: Facilitate monthly variance reviews by coordinating agendas, consolidating cross-functional inputs, and leading discussions with management regarding budget variances. Propose corrective actions, re-forecasts, or reprioritization based on data and stakeholder input. Maintain financial calendars, close timelines, and deliverable trackers with Finance. Track savings initiatives (contract consolidations, license optimization, scope right-sizing) and realized benefits. ​

• Contracts, Vendor Management, and Procurement Support: Fully manage renewals and onboarding workflows for cybersecurity Master Services Agreements (MSAs). Coordinate directly with Legal, Procurement, and Security Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) on contract terms, Statements of Work (SOWs), Service Level Agreements (SLAs), data protection addenda, and risk assessments. Maintain a centralized repository of contract artifacts, expiration dates, and required notice periods. Support the end-to-end vendor lifecycle by intaking requests, assembling due diligence materials, shepherding reviews through approval workflows, and monitoring performance metrics to flag issues. Prepare negotiation packets with spend history, utilization data, benchmarks, and risk considerations.

• Risk, Compliance, Insurance, and TCOR Oversight: Support the corporate insurance renewal process by gathering critical security and risk data for underwriting, including controls, historical incidents, audit results, and overall compliance posture. Coordinate responses to first-line insurance inquiries and manage the distribution of Certificates of Insurance (COIs). Oversee Total Cost of Risk (TCOR) process management by defining core components such as premiums, retentions, claims, incident response, downtime, third-party costs, and mitigation investments. Build and maintain a dynamic TCOR model to report quarterly trends to leadership, partnering with Risk Management to align these insights with budget and vendor decisions. Enable compliance by assisting with evidence collection for audits and assessments—such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST CSF mapping—while maintaining a calendar for attestations and renewals.

• Executive, Operational, and Program Support: Provide high-level calendar management, meeting coordination, and communications support to security leadership. Prepare executive-ready materials, briefings, Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs), and board or C-suite packets using clear narratives and clean visuals. Coordinate cross-functional initiatives and track key deliverables using roadmaps, milestones, and risk logs. Standardize and continuously improve operations by creating and updating RACI matrices, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), templates, intake forms, and trackers. Safeguard the absolute confidentiality of sensitive security, legal, and financial information.

• Stakeholder Engagement and Communication: Serve as the central point of coordination between Security, Enterprise Risk, and external vendors. Translate complex technical and security concepts into clear, action-oriented business language for non-technical stakeholders. Maintain active status updates, issue logs, and decision registers to ensure transparency and consistent follow-through across teams.
