▸  Manage corporate real estate security technology projects.

▸  Evaluate, procure, and manage vendors and integrators across all major regions.

▸  Define standards and architecture for security technology deployments at company locations globally.

▸  Lead all technology integration efforts — ensuring physical security systems interoperate effectively with broader IT and operational infrastructure.

▸  Partner with IT, facilities, e-commerce, and regional security teams to deliver consistent, high-performance security technology environments through a platform lifecycle: selection, deployment, maintenance, and decommissioning.

▸  Experience in consumer goods manufacturing, retail, e-commerce fulfillment, or high-value inventory environments strongly preferred.

▸  Strong understanding of network infrastructure, cybersecurity principles as they apply to physical systems (OT/IT convergence), and systems integration.

▸  Demonstrated ability to manage complex, multi-vendor technology programs on time and on budget.

▸  Certifications such as PSP, ASIS, or relevant vendor certifications (Genetec, Lenel) are a plus.
