* Team Leadership & Training: Build and develop a (new) information security team; manage and mentor security analysts or junior team members; drive security awareness training and phishing simulations.
* Reporting & Metrics: Prepare and deliver regular reports on security posture, incidents, and KPIs to senior leadership and regulatory bodies; advise executives on emerging threats and risk mitigation strategies.
