## Description

As a Cybersecurity Strategy Consultant, you will play a pivotal role advising our clients on how to align their security posture with business goals, regulatory requirements, and the evolving threat landscape. You will lead strategic cybersecurity engagements, shape frameworks and roadmaps, and partner closely with senior leaders (C-suite, IT leadership, operations, OT, risk) to translate strategy into action. We're specifically looking for a strategy consultant who also brings hands-on technical experience and can bridge the gap between strategy and execution.

What you'll do

 * Assess client cybersecurity maturity (IT, OT, Cloud), identify gaps, recommend improvements, and define prioritized initiatives.
 * Design and refine governance, risk & compliance (GRC) frameworks suited to client risk appetite and regulatory context.
 * Collaborate with technical teams to ensure strategy is actionable: helping translate strategic objectives into measurable control implementations.
 * Provide thought leadership and subject-matter expertise: staying current with cyber-threat trends, regulatory developments (e.g. GDPR, NIS2, etc.), and emerging best practices.
 * Support the implementation and monitoring of cybersecurity metrics, KPIs, and metrics dashboards, to enable transparent reporting at executive, managerial, and operational levels.
 * Mentor and guide more junior consultants in strategic thinking, stakeholder engagement, and problem solving.
