One Circle Solutions

Leadership & Team

Led by operators, not account managers

Experienced leadership, structured operations, and a team accountable for outcomes. Everyone who leads One Circle Solutions still works engagements — you'll meet your named leads in person during onboarding.

Leadership overview

Engaged in the work, not above it

One Circle Solutions is led by practitioners with backgrounds spanning security operations, IT infrastructure, and business leadership. Leadership here is not a title layer — it defines the standards every engagement runs on, oversees service delivery directly, and stays personally engaged in complex environments and key client relationships.

That involvement is structural, not ceremonial: every escalation path on this site ends at a leader who has run the work themselves.

Team overview

A certified bench with production scars

Behind leadership sits a bench of certified engineers, security analysts, and IT professionals with real production experience — people who have carried pagers, not just projects.

The team works inside one structured operating model rather than as isolated technical resources, so every environment we touch is managed consistently, to the same documented standards. Continuous training and certification are budgeted, scheduled, and expected — not left to personal initiative.

How the firm is led

Six desks, each accountable for something specific

We publish accountabilities rather than headshots. Each desk below owns a defined slice of the operation — and each is held by a practitioner you'll know by name once we work together.

Chief Executive Officer

Direction & accountability

Sets the direction of the firm and stays hands-on with client engagements. Two decades across security operations, infrastructure, and consulting — and still reads every quarterly client report before it ships.

Accountable for

  • Client relationships and escalation of last resort
  • Service quality and engagement standards
  • The promises this website makes
  • CISSP
  • CISM
  • PMP

Chief Information Security Officer

Security strategy

Owns our internal security program and the standards every client engagement inherits. The same controls we sell are the controls we run — this desk makes sure of it.

Accountable for

  • Internal security program and risk register
  • Client-facing security architecture standards
  • Vendor and tooling due diligence
  • CISSP
  • CCSP
  • CRISC

Director of Security Operations

24/7 SOC

  • Detection engineering and threat hunting
  • Response SLAs and escalation paths
  • GCIH

  • Integration and automation pipelines
  • OSCP
  • AWS Security Specialty
  • AZ-500

Director of GRC

Compliance & advisory

Leads vCISO engagements and audit readiness. Has taken clients through SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and CMMC — and believes a policy nobody follows is worse than no policy at all.

  • vCISO engagements and security roadmaps
  • Framework readiness and audit support
  • Policy programs and customer diligence
  • CISA
  • ISO 27001 Lead Auditor

Director of Client Delivery

Engagement success

Makes sure every engagement runs the way the proposal said it would — onboarding on schedule, reporting on time, and a named lead who actually knows your environment.

Accountable for

  • Onboarding and steady-state delivery
  • Monthly and quarterly reporting cadence
  • Client satisfaction and renewals
  • ITIL 4
  • PMP

How the team operates

Structured service management, aligned to ITIL

Consistency is a control. The team runs every environment through the same disciplines, so quality never depends on which analyst picks up the ticket.

  1. 1

    Clearly defined roles and responsibility boundaries on every engagement

  2. 2

    Standardized configurations and documented operating procedures

  3. 3

    Structured escalation and incident handling with defined SLAs

  4. 4

    Continuous monitoring, logging, and oversight of every managed environment

  5. 5

    Accountability for outcomes, not just activity

Culture

Execution, accountability, continuous improvement

The culture is built around execution, accountability, and continuous improvement — which shows up in how the team:

  • Maintains the same standards across every client environment
  • Takes ownership of issues through to outcomes
  • Backs each other up so coverage never depends on one person
  • Invests in ongoing training, certification, and capability development
