• Partner with Global Security and Aviation, Human Resources, Legal, Corporate Communications, Facilities, Business Continuity, and Information Technology during critical events.

• Strengthen GSOC performance by reviewing incident records, intelligence products, operator communications, and mass notifications for quality and accuracy.

• Use dashboards, service measures, and operational reports to spot gaps, recommend improvements, and support data quality.

• Help build team readiness through operator training, scenario exercises, knowledge checks, drills, and coaching.

• Monitor GSOC system health, address issues within approved authority, and escalate concerns to technology teams, facilities partners, or vendors.

• Support after-action reviews, corrective actions, audits, technology upgrades, process redesign, and program improvements.

• Perform other duties as assigned

Required Qualifications • 10+ years of progressive experience in corporate security operations, emergency management, a GSOC, command center, public safety, or a similar 24/7 setting.

• 5+ years of experience providing operational leadership, incident coordination, training, or senior-level support in a control center or similarly complex setting.

• Advanced knowledge of incident management, critical-event communication, escalation protocols, and physical security technologies.

• Demonstrated skill in threat intelligence, geopolitical risk assessment, crisis management, and approved open-source research.

• Experience using dashboards, analytics, service measures, and reports to improve operational performance.

• Clear written and verbal communication, strong judgment, discretion, and the ability to manage competing needs during fast-changing events.

• Proficiency with Microsoft 365, collaboration tools, incident management platforms, and common GSOC technologies.

• Ability to work assigned nights, weekends, and holidays; support a 24/7 operation; join an on-call rotation; and assist with emergency response exercises and urgent needs.

Preferred Qualifications • Associate degree or higher in criminal justice, emergency management, security management, intelligence studies, or a related field.

• Experience supporting travel risk, employee safety, facility security, business continuity, technology implementation, system upgrades, or process improvement.
