You offer clients the kind of security that will help them sleep well at night. You're a creative problem solver, always thinking ahead and spotting risks. Like a digital detective, you uncover and prevent cyber threats to protect businesses from risks they may not even know they face.

* Work towards your team's goals within the strategic direction set by the project
* Travel as needed.

Your skills

You will know all about Azure security offerings, networking, application services, databases and storage solutions, and love working with Microsoft applications. You've probably got a Bachelor's degree or equivalent in Information Systems, Information Security, or another relevant field.
* Forward-thinking interpersonal skills; you can persuasively express your point of view whether it's through a written or face-to-face presentation
* Knowledge of and interest in Microsoft security technologies and strategy
