About The Role

Roles and Responsibilities :
Conduct periodic and ad hoc cybersecurity risk assessments across IT and OT environments
Perform OT-specific risk assessments on assets such as PLCs, HMIs, RTUs, and engineering systems
Identify and document OT-relevant risk scenarios (e.g., control system disruption, unauthorized access, safety manipulation)
Coordinate risk reviews as part of major IT/OT changes, such as system upgrades or new deployments
Reassess risk posture following major changes, incidents, or regulatory updates
Review and validate existing controls to calculate residual risk and prioritize treatment actions
Provide standardized tools and guidance to support self-assessments by IT, OT, and business teams
Support integration of assessment outcomes into control design, zoning, segmentation, and system deployment
Track risk treatment progress and escalate overdue or high-priority items as needed
Coordinate with performance management to define and monitor key risk indicators (KRIs) to proactively track changes in cybersecurity risk exposure
Maintain the cybersecurity risk register, including OT-specific entries, capturing identified risks, likelihood and impact ratings, treatment plans, ownership, and status
Coordinate and execute internal cybersecurity compliance assessments across all relevant domains and functions
Serve as the lead interface for external audits and regulatory inspections, including preparation, execution, and response
Conduct periodic compliance assessments of OT environments, including SCADA, DCS, PLCs, and associated network infrastructure
Maintain an inventory of compliance-relevant OT assets and map them to applicable control requirements and standards
Monitor adherence to cybersecurity policies, escalate non-compliance, and coordinate corrective actions with relevant teams
Track and manage remediation plans for compliance gaps, non-conformities, and audit findings through closure
Validate the effectiveness of implemented controls or mitigation plans before closing compliance gaps
Review and validate configuration baselines for OT systems (e.g., firewall rules, firmware versions) to ensure alignment with compliance standards
Coordinate evidence collection, documentation, and remediation planning for compliance-related findings
Report OT and IT cybersecurity compliance status and risks to leadership and cybersecurity governance
Support compliance awareness and training for teams with control responsibilities in both IT and OT
Maintain a centralized compliance register, covering both IT and OT, that maps regulatory requirements to policies, controls, responsible teams, and evidence sources
Govern third-party cybersecurity risk by maintaining standardized assessment processes, due diligence criteria, and remediation tracking
Coordinate and conduct third-party cybersecurity assessments across IT and OT suppliers to ensure alignment with internal policies and regulatory requirements
Review vendor-supplied OT systems and supporting documentation to ensure inclusion of security controls and compliance with applicable standards (e.g., NCA OTCC, IEC 62443)
Ensure third-party risk findings are documented, risk-rated, and tracked through resolution, including acceptance or application of compensating controls
Maintain a register of assessed vendors, associated risks, control gaps, and remediation status for ongoing oversight and reporting
Collaborate with procurement, legal, and compliance to embed cybersecurity requirements into third-party agreements, including OT-specific clauses where applicable
Contribute to the development and review of third-party security policy and minimum control requirements for use in procurement and onboarding
Support internal and external audit requests related to third-party cybersecurity risk management
