About This Role

We are seeking an experienced Cloud Governance Manager to serve as a strategic liaison between our Information Security, IT, and Office of General Counsel teams.

You'll combine technical expertise with governance acumen to translate complex security and compliance requirements into actionable policies and solutions that protect sensitive firm data while enabling business operations.

What You'll Do

Data Governance Frameworks

  • Develop and implement comprehensive policies, procedures, and standards for managing data assets across their lifecycle—from intake through disposal
  • Design and enforce technical controls for data retention, classification, and access using tools such as Microsoft Purview Information Protection, Data Lifecycle Management, Data Loss Prevention, iManage Threat Manager, and Varonis
  • Establish governance standards aligned with regulatory, security, and business requirements

Risk Compliance Management

  • Identify and assess data-related risks across cloud platforms and enterprise solutions
  • Review and strengthen security and privacy controls to safeguard firm data against unauthorized access, use, or disclosure
  • Collaborate with Information Governance, Office of General Counsel, Security Architecture, and GRC teams to align directives, track risks, and support compliance initiatives

    • Stakeholder Leadership Translation

  • Serve as a critical liaison between Information Security, IT, and legal stakeholders, translating technical security concepts into business-friendly guidance
  • Partner with attorneys and business teams to design secure, compliant data access and sharing solutions
  • Deliver training and enablement on data governance best practices to employees across the firm

    • Cloud Platform Expertise

  • Provide thought leadership on data governance across Office 365 and other cloud platforms
  • Design secure patterns, manage reporting and alerting, and guide the firm's cloud data strategy
  • Stay current with evolving cloud architectures, security technologies, and threat landscapes

    • What We're Looking For

    Experience Background

  • 7+ years of combined experience in IT, information security, risk management, or data governance
  • Demonstrated expertise in cloud architecture, security, and data protection in cloud environments
  • Law firm operations experience highly preferred; candidates from other highly regulated industries (healthcare, finance, insurance) considered
  • Strong understanding of risk management frameworks and security technologies

    • Technical Analytical Skills

  • High-level technical understanding of security applications, cloud platforms, and data governance architectures
  • Proficiency in governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) practices with strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities
  • Advanced knowledge of Microsoft Purview and other governance and data loss prevention tools
  • Knowledge of information security standards and frameworks (CSF, NIST, ISO 27001) and awareness of the evolving cyber threat landscape

    • Core Competencies

  • Exceptional collaboration, communication, and stakeholder management skills
  • Ability to translate technical concepts for non-technical audiences and business-focused guidance for technical teams
  • Strong project management capabilities with experience managing risks associated with technology solutions
  • Strategic mindset with the ability to balance security, compliance, and business enablement

    • Education Certifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Information Security, Information Assurance, Computer Science, or Information Systems preferred
  • Professional certifications such as CISA, CISM, GSEC, CISSP, or CRISC preferred
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel, Visio, and PowerPoint

    • Work Environment

  • Remote position with flexibility (subject to change)
  • Must maintain reasonable commuting distance to a US office location
  • Collaborate regularly with cross-functional teams including security, IT, and legal
  • Individual contributor role with no direct reports

    • Compensation Benefits

    Competitive bonus and comprehensive benefits package offered.
