What we're looking for

What will help you succeed in this project?

Above all, we are looking for a person with business vision and leadership capacity.

It will be important that you bring:

Relevant experience within the cybersecurity ecosystem.
Orientation towards business development and client relationships.
Knowledge of the environment of technological manufacturers and partners.
Ability to communicate with both technical and executive profiles.
Experience leading teams or clear potential to do so.

Your sector background will not be the deciding factor. We will especially value that you know how the cybersecurity market works, its manufacturers, and the commercialization of solutions and services.

Regarding education, degrees in Computer Engineering, Telecommunications, or similar will fit especially well. We will also value additional training in Cybersecurity, Risk Management, or Business Management.

You will also need an English level of approximately B2, preferably higher.

And in the technological field?

We are not looking for you to be the one who technically executes the projects. You will have specialized professionals on the team for that. It will be important, however, that you possess sufficient technical judgment to understand the business, converse with clients and manufacturers, and make decisions.

We will value knowledge in areas such as:

SOC and security operations.
NOC, networks, and communications.
SIEM, SOAR, EDR/XDR, IAM, and PAM.
SASE, Zero Trust, and cloud security.
ISO 27001, ENS, and NIS2.
Service management and service level agreements.

The role

Do you have experience in cybersecurity and want to take a step towards the management of a business unit?

We are looking for a profile that combines industry knowledge, commercial vision, and leadership capacity to take on a project with a direct impact on the strategy of a consolidated Spanish technology company.

You will have the opportunity to lead its Cybersecurity Business Unit, reporting directly to the CEO and with autonomy to drive its growth, profitability, and positioning.

What will be your challenge?

Your mission will be to grow and evolve the Cybersecurity business, combining strategy, commercial development, and leadership.

You will have a specialized technical team to support you. This will allow you to focus especially on business, clients, and the evolution of the unit.

Specifically:

You will define the strategy and priorities of the area.
You will drive new opportunities and client relationships.
You will develop the portfolio of solutions and services.
You will lead the strategic relationship with manufacturers and partners.
You will coordinate pre-sales activity.
You will supervise the provision of services and operations.
You will lead the teams linked to the unit.
You will ensure billing and profitability objectives are met.

Under your responsibility will be the Pre-sales Area and the Communications and Security Area, upon which NOC and SOC operations depend.
