Executive search

CISO and security leadership search for New Zealand.

Executive search for Chief Information Security Officers and Heads of Security across New Zealand, including regulated environments and organisations working to NZISM.

01

Security leadership in regulated environments

Banking, government, critical infrastructure and health each carry distinct security obligations. We understand the difference between a CISO who reports to a board on cyber risk and one who operates inside NZISM-accredited environments, and we search accordingly.

02

CISO and Head of Security appointments

Whether it is a first security hire at executive level or a seasoned CISO for a complex estate, we run targeted searches across our known community of New Zealand technology and security leaders, permanent and interim.

03

Interim security leadership

A breach response, an audit finding, or a sudden departure can leave a security gap you cannot carry for long. Interim CISOs in our community step in quickly to steady risk posture, lead remediation, and support the permanent search.

04

Discreet, national coverage

Security searches often demand confidentiality. Pete Thompson in Auckland and Josh Rea in Wellington manage every assignment directly, with strong public sector and enterprise networks across the country.

If security leadership is the gap on your executive team, we know the people who can close it. Let's talk in confidence.
