Associate Director

Why We Exist and What We Do**:**

At Dr. Squatch (www.drsquatch.com), we’re raising the bar on men’s personal care with our line of natural, high-performance products. We’re on a high-growth, fast-moving ride, continually introducing new product categories, launching into retailers nationwide, and growing internationally. We have been recognized and certified by Great Place to Work® multiple times, and we achieved status as a certified B Corp in 2023. We are looking for passionate, talented people who want to join us in our mission to inspire and educate men to be happier and healthier!

About the Role:

Dr. Squatch is looking for an Associate Director of Cybersecurity, Privacy & IT to lead three connected functions: our security program, our privacy compliance program, and the internal technology our employees use every day. You'll own the strategy, and the team for all three.

As part of Unilever, we now operate against a global control framework, and a meaningful share of this role is integration work: mapping our controls to enterprise standards, participating in assessment and reporting cycles, aligning identity, endpoint, and third-party risk practices, and translating between a global program and a business that still runs at startup speed. Doing that well, protecting the company without slowing it down, is the core challenge of the job.

This role will also continue to drive the security strategy and represent Dr. Squatch in enterprise-level security and privacy governance. You'll sit on the Technology leadership team alongside data engineering, analytics, and business systems, partner closely with eCommerce, marketing, and legal, and present directly to our executive team on risk, incidents, and investment decisions.

This role reports to the Sr. Director, Data & Technology.

This is a full-time, hybrid role based in Marina Del Rey, CA.

The anticipated base compensation range for this role will be $190,000 to $215,000. Compensation will be commensurate with the candidate's experience and local market rates.

What You'll Do:

• Cybersecurity program
  • Maintain the cybersecurity risk register: identify risks to our data and systems, assess likelihood and impact, and prioritize what gets addressed first.
  • Own the multi-year security roadmap.
  • Evaluate, select, implement, and operate security tooling across endpoint, email, identity, cloud, and application layers.
  • Monitor and triage vulnerabilities and emerging threats; drive remediation to completion with the teams that own the systems.
  • Manage our MDR and incident response partners, and own the incident response plan, including tabletop exercises and post-incident reviews.
