Volunteer Leadership
Do you want to make a difference in the cybersecurity industry? Are you looking for a way to give back and get involved?
Secure Diversity is expanding its leadership team to include volunteers. We want to have a bigger impact on the cybersecurity industry, offer more programming, and increase the frequency. Our goal is to impact diversity in the industry, and we need your energy, ideas, and time. Depending on the role, we anticipate that you will average 3 – 5 hours per week, with more hours needed around conference time for those in DOS-related roles. Role descriptions are a starting point and may be adjusted based on the coordinator’s strengths and passions. They may also be adjusted to ensure the responsibilities are manageable through a volunteer capacity.
