  • Create and manage secure internal communication channels (e.g., Slack or Telegram) for active incidents, ensuring accurate, real-time updates are maintained.

  • Track incident status, action items, and dependencies, proactively following up to keep cases moving forward.

  • Support post-scoping operational steps, including coordination of secure data exchange processes and internal handoffs once approvals are in place

  • Maintain detailed and organized case notes, timelines, and communication records throughout the lifecycle of an incident.

  • Escalate risks, blockers, or urgent issues promptly to appropriate internal stakeholders.

  • Operate effectively in high-pressure, fast-moving situations, adapting quickly as new information becomes available.




Required Skills & Qualifications



  • Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent work experience.

  • Technical proficiency in cyber threat research and analysis.

  • Strong client relationship management skills.

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly in client-facing and high-pressure environments.

  • Demonstrated ability to stay organized and detail-oriented while managing multiple active incidents.

  • Ability to think quickly, prioritize effectively, and remain composed under pressure.

  • Professional judgment and discretion when handling sensitive information.

  • Strong follow-through and accountability.




Preferred Experience



  • Experience in crisis management, incident response coordination, cybersecurity, investigations, or high-stakes client services.

  • Familiarity with secure communications and handling sensitive or confidential information.

  • Experience coordinating cross-functional teams in urgent or time-sensitive situations.
