Our Team Is Hiring

Security and Risk Management Strategies (SRMS) team at Gartner for Technical Professionals (GTP) is HIRING!!!

See details and apply here: Security & Risk Strategies Research Analyst – Gartner (IRC18069)

Some highlights from me:

• this is GTP (former Burton Group) and so our research is more about “doing/architecting things” than about “buying things”
• you do NOT have to have an analyst background – an enterprise security architect background is more useful here
• you DO have to love to AND know how to write
• work from anywhere in US or EMEA (yes, really!)
• travel is relatively limited (by analysts standards)
• our team here is really, really superb! Or, I can just say “awesome+”
