Jen Buckner

Senior executive and seasoned board director with a distinguished record of leading complex organizations and global operations in dynamic environments. I bring deep expertise across security strategy, technology leadership, cybersecurity, geopolitical and enterprise risk, corporate governance, threat and business intelligence, and risk frameworks and analytics — enabling organizations to anticipate, adapt, and thrive. With a history of building trusted partnerships across the U.S. government, international institutions, financial services, and technology sectors, I specialize in connecting strategy to execution, driving governance excellence, and operationalizing robust risk management. I have a proven ability to deliver innovative technology solutions ahead of emerging threats and to align multidisciplinary teams around strategic priorities. As a former U.S. Army General Officer, I commanded large, complex organizations, led combat operations, and managed cross-functional mission execution at scale — experiences that inform my disciplined approach to leadership and decision-making. In board and executive roles, I focus on strengthening oversight in areas such as cyber risk governance, digital transformation risk, compliance and ethics, strategic resilience, and enterprise risk integration — helping boards navigate an environment where technology risk is core to organizational performance and stakeholder trust.
