About The Position

We are looking for an experienced Threat Monitoring Manager to lead the day-to-day delivery of our threat monitoring work. Reporting to the Head of Insights, US, this role is an opportunity to work at the cutting edge of threat detection, helping to safeguard some of the world’s most well-known athletes, public officials, and corporate leaders.

The Threat Monitoring Manager will be responsible for ensuring this work is delivered consistently, accurately and to a high standard, while creating an environment in which analysts can perform at their best in a challenging and fast-moving field. This is a hands-on people and delivery management role. You will lead a small team of managers and analysts, translate priorities into clear plans and workflows, maintain high standards in digital collection, investigations and analysis, and ensure risks are escalated appropriately. You will work closely with the Head of Insights, US, to ensure our threat monitoring engagements are delivered and consistently, accurately and to a high standard. You will have significant responsibility for the team’s day-to-day delivery while receiving support and direction from the Head of Insights on client relationships, commercial decisions, and more complex or sensitive issues. You will be comfortable making sound decisions in ambiguous or time-sensitive situations, while knowing when an issue requires escalation to more senior leadership. This role would suit someone who is excited to grow as a manager, deepen their expertise in threat monitoring, and take on increasing responsibility over time. If you thrive in a dynamic environment, enjoy working across multiple workstreams, and have a passion for work that has impact, we’d love to hear from you.
