From Vanguard's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Overview:
As the Head of Cyber Defense within Vanguard’s Cyber Security Operations Center (CSOC) , you will serve as a senior leader responsible for advancing and executing Vanguard’s global cyber defense strategy. The person in this role will lead a global organization accountable for end-to-end cyber defense operations—spanning threat detection, response, mitigation, and continuous improvement—across data center and multi-cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP).
This role goes beyond operational leadership. You will act as a strategic partner and extension of the CSOC senior leadership team, shaping the future of cyber defense capabilities, strengthening organizational resiliency, and ensuring Vanguard remains ahead of an evolving threat landscape.
Success in this role requires the rare ability to combine deep technical credibility, executive leadership, and enterprise influence—translating complex cyber risk into clear business outcomes while enabling the firm to operate securely at global scale.
