The Vice President of Cybersecurity serves as the senior cybersecurity leader for the credit union and reports directly to the COO.

  • Lead AI and data governance efforts related to cybersecurity, including secure use of AI tools, model oversight coordination, data protection controls, and governance expectations.
  • Partner with Digital Delivery, Infrastructure, Risk, Compliance, Internal Audit, Legal, and business leaders while maintaining independent cybersecurity oversight.
  • Supervise the Security Operations Manager and ensure effective day-to-day execution of operational security activities.

What You Bring to the Teamย 

  • Bachelorโ€™s degree in cybersecurity, information systems, computer science, business, or a related field; advanced degree preferred.
  • CISSP and CSM Certifications Required; GIAC-GSEC preferred
  • 10 or more years of progressive cybersecurity experience, including senior leadership responsibility in financial services or another regulated industry.
  • Demonstrated experience with security strategy, governance, incident response, identity, cloud security, third-party risk, and board/regulatory reporting.
  • Strong working knowledge of financial services control expectations and frameworks such as FFIEC, GLBA, NIST, and related regulatory guidance.
  • Proven ability to communicate technical risk in clear business terms to executive leadership and boards.

Success Profile

  • Executive presence and board-ready communication style.
  • Business-oriented leadership mindset with strong risk judgment.
  • Ability to balance strategic oversight with practical execution.
  • Strong collaboration skills with enough independence to provide credible challenge.

Tools & Work Environmentย
