• Influence technology and lab teams, as well as executives at the director, vice president and deputy senior vice president levels.
• Lead the continuous improvement of security services to reduce risks across all of Intact’s operations in Canada and provide capabilities that are reliable, scalable and tailored to the needs of Security Operations Centre customers.
• Resolve complex and ambiguous issues related to the performance of the Security Operations Centre team, vendors, platforms and services.
• Ensure commitments to regulators, auditors and other external stakeholders are maintained.
• Implement a culture of continuous improvement in security processes, tools, methods and services.
• Develop reliable and high-performing services for the Security Operations Centre that meet the needs of users and partners.
