• Translate complex intelligence signals into clear and actionable protective intelligence insights for leadership and operational stakeholders.
• Identify early warning indicators and behavioral escalation signals that may indicate increased threat activity.
• Aggregate intelligence feeds, internal reporting, and monitoring outputs from multiple sources to build a consolidated understanding of the threat environment.
• Design and maintain intelligence dashboards, alerts, and situational awareness tools that consolidate intelligence inputs and surface key signals and emerging risks for leadership.
• Identify opportunities to leverage automation, analytics tools, or AI-enabled workflows to improve intelligence collection, monitoring, and reporting.
• Produce written intelligence products including threat briefs, situational awareness reports, executive briefings, and operational risk summaries.
• Provide intelligence insights that support operational planning, travel safety, newsroom assignments, executive protection, and event security.
• Assess online threats, harassment campaigns, doxxing activity, insider risk indicators, or other forms of targeted behavior directed toward Dow Jones personnel.
• Support investigative activities related to threats or security incidents affecting employees, journalists, executives, or facilities.
• Brief stakeholders across security, editorial, and leadership teams on emerging threats and risk implications.
• Build and maintain relationships with relevant law enforcement and external partners to support the escalation and resolution of threats impacting Dow Jones personnel or operations.
• Serve as a trusted intelligence resource to internal partners across the organization.

You Have:

• 7+ years of experience in threat intelligence, protective intelligence, geopolitical risk analysis, or related disciplines.
• Experience developing or improving intelligence monitoring workflows that automate the aggregation of intelligence feeds and operational reporting into centralized dashboards, alerts, or situational awareness tools.
• Ability to translate intelligence signals into structured dashboards, reporting frameworks, or automated alerts that surface key risk indicators and emerging threats.
• Experience conducting protective intelligence analysis or threat assessments involving targeted threats against individuals or organizations.
• Demonstrated ability to aggregate intelligence from multiple sources—including external intelligence providers, internal monitoring capabilities, and open-source reporting—and translate those inputs into actionable threat assessments and operational risk insights.
