网络安全项目与行业合作总监

Who We Are
NGO-ISAC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that strengthens the security of U.S.-based nonprofits. We are the leading cybersecurity community for non-governmental organizations, serving 400+ members including think tanks, human rights organizations, foundations, environmental groups, and healthcare nonprofits and partnering with private sector organizations both large and small. We're the cybersecurity backbone keeping civil society functioning in an increasingly digital world.
Our mission: Boost cybersecurity maturity in NGOs through strategic intelligence, best practices, and immersive education, fostering a resilient and collaborative security culture.
Who You Are
NGO-ISAC is hiring a leader to build and run its cybersecurity programs and sector engagement work. Much of this function is still being built, and the person in this role will design it. They will set the direction for threat intelligence sharing and collective defense, create the programs and resources that raise members' security maturity, and represent NGO-ISAC across government, industry, and the wider cybersecurity community. The stakes are direct: when a nonprofit or a newsroom is compromised, people can be surveilled or detained. This role builds the programs that help members prevent and recover from those attacks.
This is a senior role with real ownership and the authority to act on it, accountable to NGO-ISAC's budget, strategy, and shared leadership. It suits a confident expert who collaborates well, respects what others know, and stays open to feedback.
This role is fully remote within the United States. We prefer candidates on the East Coast for time-zone overlap and the occasional in-person event; travel required.
This role owns what NGO-ISAC produces: curriculum, intelligence products, technical content, and its accuracy. Membership owns the member transaction: who joins, who renews, what they pay, and what the record says. Community & Partnerships owns the member relationship: engagement, convening, and peer community. It also owns partnerships, from peer organizations through commercial and technology partners; this role assesses the technical fit of technology partners. All three functions serve the same organizations through different work.
