About The Position

Ontic provides software that helps corporate and government security teams identify threats, assess risk, and respond faster to keep people and organizations safe. Its Connected Intelligence Platform unifies security operations and data into a centralized system of record, enabling organizations to conduct risk assessments, protect against workplace violence, and manage threats and incidents more efficiently. Fortune 500 companies and federal agencies rely on Ontic to support security programs such as executive protection, threat intelligence, and corporate investigations. Ontic is seeking a dynamic and highly respected Senior Director, GSOC Practice Leader to shape and scale modern Global Security Operations Center (GSOC) programs across enterprise and public sector organizations. This role blends executive-level GSOC leadership experience, operational credibility, technology fluency, and strategic go-to-market partnership. You will serve as a trusted advisor to Chief Security Officers (CSOs), Heads of Global Security, Intelligence Directors, and GSOC leaders, helping them modernize operations, unify intelligence workflows, and elevate their command center capabilities. You have led or significantly transformed a GSOC within a large, complex global enterprise — overseeing multiple regions, sites, and risk environments. You understand the operational realities of 24/7 security operations and the technology ecosystem that powers them. Most importantly, you bring the mindset of a builder: someone who has designed, scaled, and optimized security operations for resilience, efficiency, and measurable business impact.
