TEKsystems is seeking a Sr. Security Manager to join our team. The Security Manager’s role is to lead the enterprise industrial security function across a portfolio of cleared Government contracting companies, including Facility Security Officer (FSO), Insider Threat Program Senior Official (ITPSO), and Key Management Personnel (KMP) responsibilities.
What You’ll Do:
- Lead, develop, and manage the industrial security team, including workload, priorities, cross-training, performance expectations, and professional development.
- Serve as designated FSO for assigned cleared entities and supervise implementation of applicable requirements under 32 CFR Part 117 (NISPOM) and related U.S. Government security requirements.
- Serve as ITPSO for assigned cleared entities and oversee execution of required insider threat program activities, training, coordination, documentation, and reporting.
- Serve as KMP for assigned cleared entities and maintain required clearance eligibility, training, briefings, and documentation.
- Maintain effective relationships with DCSA and coordinate reviews, assessments, inquiries, corrective actions, facility clearance actions, KMP changes, and other required submissions.
- Oversee personnel security administration, access eligibility records, required security briefings, security incident and reportable activity processing, and related Government systems including NISS, DISS, and NBIS.
- Conduct or oversee required annual self-inspections, track corrective actions, and provide the SMO and executive leadership with clear visibility into material security risks and open actions.
- Review and support implementation of DD Form 254 requirements and other classified contract security requirements.
- Establish consistent security processes and controls across cleared companies while accounting for entity-specific requirements and contract conditions.
- Maintain documented procedures, cross-training, succession capability, and continuity arrangements that reduce key-person dependency.
- Partner with Legal, Contracts, Human Resources, Information Technology, cybersecurity, operations, and executive leadership on security matters affecting cleared operations.
- Support integration of newly acquired, newly formed, or newly cleared entities into the enterprise security operating model.
- Manage third-party or shared security support, when used, while retaining appropriate internal oversight and accountability for assigned FSO and ITPSO responsibilities.
Required:
-Minimum 10 years of progressively responsible industrial security experience within U.S. Government contracting organizations.
-Significant hands-on experience performing FSO responsibilities under the NISP.
-Demonstrated experience with personnel security, facility clearances, DCSA interactions, classified contract requirements, and security self-inspections.
-Demonstrated experience leading, developing, and managing security personnel.
-Strong working knowledge of 32 CFR Part 117 (NISPOM) and applicable DCSA requirements.
-Working experience with NISS, DISS, NBIS, and related industrial security systems and processes.
-Current Top Secret security clearance and ability to maintain Top Secret eligibility.
-Ability to satisfy applicable FSO, ITPSO, and KMP requirements and maintain required training and eligibility.
Preferred:
-Experience supporting a multi-entity Government contracting organization with multiple Facility Clearances.
-Experience serving as FSO and/or ITPSO for multiple cleared legal entities.
-Experience managing a centralized or shared-service industrial security function.
-Experience supporting acquisitions, organizational growth, facility-clearance transitions, or integration of newly established Government contracting entities.
This is a leadership role, not solely a transactional FSO position. Success requires a security leader who can build a resilient team, maintain disciplined NISP compliance, identify capacity and control risks early, and provide practical security support to a growing portfolio of cleared Government contracting companies.
