Tech Recruiter - Acquirer of High Performance Talent

RESULTS I DELIVER
• Better quality search results. If you are pitting one firm against another, they will race against each other (for a brief while) to get resumes to you as quickly as possible. Because of the imposed urgency, you are likely to see a number of unqualified resumes. Non-exclusive recruiters often hope to get lucky and hit a match, rather than putting in the effort to screen properly.

•  Deeper and broader search. Committing to one recruiter will allow that recruiter to spend the time to network and headhunt to uncover the very best candidate for your requirements, rather than just pulling resumes out of a database.

•  Less work for the hiring manager. If you are working with multiple search firms, you will get a lot more resumes than you would working with just one recruiter. However, many of those resumes will not match your hiring needs, which just makes more work for the hiring manager. Not to mention time spent sorting out candidate ownership disputes between multiple firms.

•  Better candidate experience. Have you ever received the same resume from more than one recruiter? It can make your company look unprofessional if more than one recruiter interviews a candidate about the same job. And you may see some great candidates back out of the process entirely when multiple firms are involved.

•  Confidentiality. For a confidential search, working with more than one recruiting firm makes no sense. It will be impossible for a recruiter to keep the company name confidential if there are multiple search firms involved.

CISO/vCISO | IT/IS Leadership | Mentor | MSc., CCSP, CISM, CRISC, CMMC RP

I help organizations make confident, risk‑informed decisions by turning complex cybersecurity and regulatory challenges into clear, actionable strategy. For 20+ years, I’ve advised mid‑market and Fortune 50 companies across automotive, healthcare, financial services, energy, and higher education - leading security programs, maturing governance, and guiding executives through high‑stakes decisions.

As a Field CISO and vCISO, I build and lead security programs, drive regulatory alignment (ISO 27001, NIST CSF, CMMC, TISAX, HIPAA, PCI), and strengthen resilience through practical, business‑aligned risk management. I’ve scaled consulting practices, supported sales and client growth as a senior SME, and led organizations through major incidents, including enterprise‑wide ransomware events.

I’m also an educator and industry voice; adjunct professor, APMG-accredited ISACA instructor, and frequent podcast and webinar guest on cybersecurity, privacy, AI, and connected‑vehicle risk.

Whether advising as a vCISO or stepping into a full‑time executive role, I focus on clarity, credibility, and measurable outcomes. If your organization needs strategic leadership, program maturity, or a trusted partner who can bridge technical depth with executive decision‑making, I’m always open to a conversation.
