Demonstration of continuous learning to expand technical understanding of controls to a comprehensive level. Communication Skills: Outstanding ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences, including auditors, senior management, and business partners. Comfortable in questioning and challenging assertions when the facts, metrics and anecdotes differ. Risk Management: Solid understanding of risk management principles and how they apply to cyber security controls and governance. Experience of transforming risk conversations from theoretical to actionable, challenge assumptions, and bridge the gap between policy and practice. Experience of working in common GRC tooling platforms to capture and handle issues and risks. Continuous Control Monitoring & Automation (Preferred): Experienced in automating controls monitoring, analysis and evidence collection to simplify assurance processes. Certifications (Preferred): CISSP, CISA, CRISC or similar, and technical security certifications are highly desirable.
