About the Job
PwC is driving major change across information and cyber security by establishing a centralized model to provide security services throughout its member firm network. The Network Information Security (NIS) team operates outside of Information Technology (IT) and is responsible for executing the global Cyber Readiness Program, aimed at identifying, controlling, and reducing the attack surface across the member firm network while increasing the cost of attack for adversaries.

The CISO pillar within NIS focuses on engagement, governance, measurement, and service interface. Within this structure, we work closely with member firms to understand their business models and technology roadmaps. This allows us to outline the roadmap for NIS while driving the engagement and adoption of central security services in line with the Cyber Readiness Program.

The CISO Services Team is comprised of four core areas: CISO Engagement, NIS Service Interface, CISO Measurement, and CISO Governance. These areas are integral in supporting member firm Information Security Officers (ISOs) and their teams in implementing the PwC Information Security Policy (ISP).

Responsibilities

  • Manage relationships across PwC member firms.
  • Map existing member firm services to the NIS service catalogue.
  • Define the roadmap for integrating member firm services into NIS shared services.
  • Provide consultancy during service integration.

Metrics

  • Capture metrics aligned to service integration and service adoption.
  • Drive quality of service to stakeholders.

Core Skills

  • Analyze member firm needs to inform NIS global security strategy.
  • Engage with stakeholders to assess security threats and manage risks.
  • Facilitate integration with Security Architecture, Engineering, Innovation, and Transformation (SAEIT) and Cyber Security Service Management.
  • Assess service availability and compliance with PwC’s Information Security Policy.

Education Level

  • Required: High school diploma or G.E.D.
  • Preferred: Undergraduate Degree (e.g., BA, BS) in Information Technology or a related field, and/or completed certifications in cybersecurity.

Experience Level

  • 1 - 3 years of progressive professional roles involving information security, IT management, and/or major program management.

Desired Skills

  • Analytical mindset with the ability to ask the right questions.
  • Broad understanding of security technology and principles.
  • High-level understanding of PwC’s business model and operating environment, with the ability to contextualize security threats for non-technical staff and executives.
  • Strong business communication skills to effectively engage with stakeholders and promote information security initiatives.
