- Coordinate with IT, HR, Legal, and Engineering to integrate security controls across all functions and programs.

- Conduct and document self-inspections, audits, and vulnerability assessments; lead mitigation and continuous improvement efforts.

- Train and brief employees on security awareness, insider threat prevention, and reporting responsibilities.

- Support contract security requirements (DD254s, foreign ownership/control/influence mitigation, etc.).

- Partner with leadership to embed a security-first mindset into E-Space’s culture of innovation and responsibility.

- Oversee corporate physical security programs across commercial and non-classified facilities.

- Manage physical access control systems, including employee, contractor, and visitor access.

- Administer badging programs, including credential issuance, access reviews, and badge revocation.

- Oversee video surveillance and camera systems, including monitoring, retention, maintenance, and investigative support.

- Coordinate facility security measures with Corporate Security, Facilities, Human Resources, Information Security, and Legal.

- Ensure the protection of company personnel, facilities, equipment, and other corporate assets.

- Review and approve physical security controls for offices, restricted areas, secure spaces, and sensitive business operations.

- Investigate and report physical security incidents, unauthorized access, theft, workplace security concerns, and policy violations.

What You Bring:

- Active U.S. Top Secret (TS) clearance (with SCI eligibility strongly preferred).

- 8+ years of experience in industrial security, including at least 3 years as an FSO for a possessing facility.

- Proven record of success establishing a new cleared facility, including working through initial sponsorship, construction, and DCSA accreditation.

- Certified FSO (CDSE) training completion; additional CDSE Insider Threat Program Management training strongly preferred.

- Deep understanding of NISPOM, ICD 705, DoDM 5205.07 (http://5205.07), and related directives.

- Experience managing classified information systems and working with Information System Security Managers (ISSMs).

- Exceptional attention to detail, communication, and problem-solving skills — with the ability to work cross-functionally in a fast-moving environment.
