Your Career
Our leading consultancy seeks a dynamic and visionary vCISO to champion and operationalize cybersecurity best practices across our key clients.
This crucial role will act as an account CISO and requires a trusted advisor who can effectively engage with client stakeholders (including CISOs, security teams, IT management, and executive leadership) across our client base.
You’ll shape strategy, navigate complexity, and build trusted relationships in moments that matter. This is a hybrid role blending delivery, advisory, thought leadership and relationship development.
You bring not just credibility, but presence — influencing strategy, guiding our engagements, and strengthening PANW’s position in key markets. As part of our strategic transformation team, you will work alongside technical specialists and GTM leaders to connect client challenges to meaningful outcomes.
This position requires a seasoned cybersecurity professional eager to influence client outcomes and drive meaningful improvements to their security posture. This role is key in managing and reducing operational security risks for our key clients to acceptable levels by architecting remediation programs and guiding the implementation of appropriate security controls.
