The Role You are the single accountable executive for a dedicated global security operations center program built for one enterprise technology client.

The GSOC runs two service areas that both fold up into the program you own: an intelligence function producing assessed, decision-ready product for executive stakeholders, and a physical security function running alarm monitoring, video verification, dispatch, access control and the security service queue.

It operates 24/7/365 with no scheduled downtime.

A third operations center in Europe covers EMEA and Asia-Pacific and provides failover for Santa Monica.

A subcontracted partner employs and locally manages that team, so you do not supervise them.

You are accountable for what they deliver: the standards, the service levels, the escalation path and the commercial relationship sit with M1 Global regardless of who badges the operator.

This is an operator's job before it is an account job.

You are expected to know a watch floor from the inside.

Three functional managers run the day-to-day and you hold them to their measures, but you will not be credible in this seat if the floor is a black box to you.

It is also a build.

You set the GSOC operating model with the client rather than around them, decide which of their existing procedures the GSOC adopts, adapts or replaces, and take the program through validation to go-live.

Your management team is recruited in parallel with you and seated on the same schedule.

You inherit them, you own them from day one, and you own every leadership hire after that.

The two service areas run separate supervisory chains that converge only at you.

Personnel are separated; information is not.

You own the intelligence-to-operations handoff and you own every service level in the contract, several of which carry financial consequence.

When a measure misses, you issue the corrective action plan before you are asked for it.
