Job description

About AppJaxx
AppJaxx is a rapidly growing marketing agency that helps marketing agencies, franchisors, business brokers, and B2B service providers scale through LinkedIn lead generation, appointment-setting systems, and automated CRM processes. Our focus is on combining data, technology, and strategy to create predictable growth for our clients.

As we continue to expand, we’re looking for a Head of Cyber Security to lead our security vision, strengthen our infrastructure and data protection, and ensure the safety, compliance, and resilience of our systems as we scale.

Position Overview
The Head of Cyber Security will own AppJaxx’s overall security strategy and execution. This role is responsible for designing, implementing, and continuously improving security architecture, policies, monitoring systems, and risk management frameworks to protect company data, client information, and operational continuity.

The ideal candidate is both strategic and hands-on—someone who can build enterprise-grade security environments, proactively identify vulnerabilities, implement modern defense mechanisms, and align cybersecurity initiatives with business growth and compliance requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Own and execute the company’s overall cybersecurity strategy aligned with business growth and risk management goals.
Design, implement, and maintain secure infrastructure, networks, applications, and data protection systems.
Establish security policies, governance frameworks, and compliance standards across the organization.
Monitor threats, vulnerabilities, and incidents while leading rapid detection, response, and remediation processes.
Collaborate closely with Engineering, Operations, Client Delivery, and Leadership to ensure security is embedded across all systems and workflows.
Oversee security audits, penetration testing, access controls, encryption standards, and identity management.
Ensure compliance with relevant data protection and privacy regulations.
Develop incident response plans, disaster recovery processes, and business continuity strategies.
Evaluate, implement, and manage cybersecurity tools, platforms, and external security vendors.
Lead and grow the cybersecurity function, including hiring, training, and performance management.
Continuously identify opportunities to strengthen security posture using automation, AI-driven threat detection, and emerging cybersecurity technologies.
