New Executive Director of IT Information Security – Corp Security Ops: Strategic Hire or Corporate Bloat?

What are your thoughts on the new Executive Director of IT Information Security, Corp Security Ops? Given the current leadership structure, it is worth questioning if this was a strategic move or just more corporate bloat.

A few points:
• Qualifications: Does his background actually align with the technical demands of the role, or is this another "style over substance" appointment?
• Redundancy: We already have an EVP/CISA and a VP Governance & Compliance in this department. Why was an Executive Director position necessary?
• Value Add: Is this role going to drive real security initiatives, or are we just funding another high-level salary to churn out monthly PowerPoint decks?

Does this seem like a genuine effort to strengthen our infrastructure, or is it just a waste of company resources?
