The successful candidate will manage and mentor a team of four, support client delivery, help resolve technical and operational challenges, and take ownership of day-to-day responsibilities that allow senior leadership to focus on broader strategic initiatives.
The Vulnerability Management Manager will report directly to Andrew and serve as a trusted leader across the vulnerability and exposure management function.

- Build a positive, accountable team culture focused on development, collaboration, and strong client delivery.
- Lead vulnerability management activities across client environments, including vulnerability identification, prioritization, remediation tracking, and validation.
- Guide the team in determining which vulnerabilities present the greatest real-world risk based on severity, exploitability, asset criticality, exposure, and business impact.
- Help clients move beyond simply identifying vulnerabilities by supporting the remediation process through closure.
- Track critical and aging vulnerabilities and ensure appropriate escalation and remediation plans are in place.
- Support Attack Surface Management and Exposure Management initiatives across client environments.
- Work closely with client infrastructure, cloud, security, application, and operations teams to drive vulnerability remediation.
