About The Position

Healthcare security isn’t a compliance checkbox problem — it’s a patient safety problem. At Froedtert ThedaCare, the Cybersecurity GRC Manager owns the program that connects our governance posture to real-world risk outcomes for patients, clinicians, and the communities we serve across Wisconsin.
