About The Position

Clearbridge Business Solutions is a people-centric managed and professional services firm with offices in Abbotsford, BC and Kent, WA. We deliver IT, cybersecurity, AI & automation, marketing, and development services to customers across Canada and the United States. Our goal is simple: help our customers do their best work. That means keeping them secure, keeping them compliant, and making sure they can trust us to have their back. This is a senior level role. You will be the person responsible for cybersecurity across the board: the services we deliver to customers, the compliance programs we run on their behalf, and the security posture of Clearbridge itself. We serve a wide range of customers, including HIPAA-regulated businesses in the United States. That means compliance is not a checkbox exercise. It is a core part of what we deliver, and you will lead it. Like every role at Clearbridge, this one is fundamentally customer-facing. You need to be as comfortable in a boardroom conversation about risk as you are running a technical assessment. If you can only do one or the other, this is not the right fit.

Requirements

Security expertise is the baseline.
Ability to communicate risk clearly, earn trust quickly, and make cybersecurity compliance feel manageable rather than overwhelming.
Know cybersecurity deeply. Understand the threat landscape, common attack vectors, and what good controls look like across different environments and risk profiles.
Know compliance. HIPAA, SOC 2, NIST, or similar frameworks are not new territory. Have led or supported real compliance engagements and know where the complexity hides.
Communicate clearly. Can walk a business owner through a risk assessment without losing them, and can write a policy that people will actually read and follow.
Customer-obsessed. Measure success by how secure and confident your customers feel, not just by what the reports say.
Use AI tools in your work. Leverage AI to work smarter. Do not need to be an AI specialist, but need to be an active, capable user.
Self-directed. Can own a program from start to finish without someone managing every step.

Nice To Haves

Relevant certifications: CISSP, CISM, CompTIA Security+, or similar.
Hands-on experience with HIPAA compliance in a US healthcare or adjacent environment.
Experience in an MSP or professional services firm.
Familiarity with dark-web monitoring tools and threat intelligence platforms.

Responsibilities

Own and deliver our tiered security offering (Security Basics, Core, Advanced) across the customer base.
Lead security assessments and risk reviews. Identify gaps, explain them clearly, and turn findings into actionable recommendations customers can act on.
Run dark-web monitoring and threat-detection services. Triage alerts and communicate what matters in plain language.
Support customers through compliance programs: HIPAA, SOC 2, NIST, and others relevant to their industry.
Be the customer's trusted advisor on security. Build relationships where customers call you when something feels off.
Lead compliance engagements from scoping through to delivery. Own the process, the documentation, and the customer relationship throughout.
Translate regulatory requirements into clear, practical guidance for non-technical stakeholders.
Maintain working knowledge of the regulatory landscape our customers operate in and flag changes that affect them.
Build repeatable compliance frameworks so the work scales without reinventing the wheel each time.
Own Clearbridge's internal security posture. Policies, controls, tooling, and ongoing monitoring.
Ensure our own house reflects the standards we hold our customers to.
Partner with leadership on risk decisions and keep the team informed of anything that matters.
Work closely with our IT and AI teams to embed security into how we build and deliver services.
Stay current. Track the threat landscape, emerging tooling, and regulatory changes, and bring the best of it back to the team.
