• You demonstrate exceptional writing, editing and verbal communication skills, with a high attention to detail and quality in written analysis, presentations and communications.

• You are comfortable presenting information and recommendations to senior executive and board-level audiences.

As a Manager on the Cyber Strategy team, you will:

• Independently oversee the development and administration of core functions within the Cyber Strategy and Reporting team, including development of new reports, strategies and talking points that effectively convey the state of cyber risk.
