Associate Director, Threat Management (San Francisco)

Are you ready to pivot your analytical mindset into the high-stakes world of global security? Control Risks is seeking a dynamic Associate Director to join our elite Threat Management team, serving as a critical partner in protecting organizations from complex, high-risk challenges. This is not a back-office role; you will be at the forefront of the industry, mastering the nuances of workplace violence prevention, insider risk, and protective intelligence. Based in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area—with flexibility to operate from our key hubs across the country—you will be immersed in a fast-paced environment where your ability to assess threats and provide actionable, real-world solutions will directly influence our clients' safety and resilience.

As an Associate Director, you will step into a unique hybrid role that blends deep subject matter expertise with the thrill of business development. We are looking for a strategic thinker who is eager to take ownership of the full consulting lifecycle—from identifying and pitching innovative solutions to leading the delivery of high-impact, end-to-end projects. You will be mentored by industry-leading experts who will help you translate your academic foundation into a powerful fee-earning consulting career. If you are a proactive problem-solver with a passion for crisis response and a desire to build a career that makes a measurable difference in the security landscape, we invite you to help us define the future of threat management.
