About The Position

The Director, Information Security will lead the vision, strategy, and execution of a comprehensive security program for Christian Care Ministry (CCM), that safeguards a complex, hybrid technology environment while enabling innovation across the organization. This position will play a pivotal role in shaping secure AI adoption across the organization —including Agentic AI—and advising executive leadership and the Board on risk, compliance, and emerging threats.
