Overview
Kerry Consulting is currently partnering multiple organisations to hire for Cybersecurity Operations Lead to strengthen and evolve cyber defense capabilities. In this role, you will shape the strategy and execution of security operations, ensuring the organization stays resilient against an ever-changing threat landscape. You will work closely with internal stakeholders and external partners to safeguard critical systems, data, and digital platforms that support large-scale, complex business operations.

Role
As the Cybersecurity Operations Lead, you will own the day-to-day running and continuous enhancement of the Security Operations Center (SOC). You will drive the modernization of security operations, including the adoption of automation and orchestration technologies, and oversee a broad portfolio of security platforms such as firewalls, endpoint protection, DDoS mitigation, email security, and privileged access solutions.

A key part of your mandate is to maximize value from the Managed Security Service Provider (MSSP), monitor performance against SLAs, and ensure that processes, runbooks, and incident response plans are robust, tested, and continually improved through data-driven insights and post-incident reviews.
