Job description

📍 Flexible location | 🌍 International role | 💼 Full-time

Security never stands still. And you?
You make security work in practice. Not as a checklist, but as a way of thinking and acting. You connect strategy with execution and ensure every affiliate works with the same clear standards. Your impact? Stronger security, smarter decisions, and a resilient organization ready for the future.

Your biggest challenge
You turn complex frameworks into clear, workable standards. You make sure they live in daily operations, not just on paper.

  • Translate group security frameworks into practical policies, controls, and procedures
  • Build and strengthen a Security-by-Design culture across projects, platforms, and teams
  • Guide affiliates with clear tools, training, and hands-on support so they move forward with confidence
  • Set up and drive a structured risk management cycle across the group
  • Support teams in identifying risks, defining actions, and tracking real progress
  • Monitor execution, detect gaps, and report clear insights to senior leadership
  • Drive corrective actions and continuous improvement across affiliates
  • Support audit readiness and ensure evidence and documentation stay complete and accurate
  • Align with IT, PMO, and business teams so governance supports real business needs
  • Act as a trusted advisor for leadership on risk, compliance, and security priorities
  • Learn from incidents and translate insights into stronger policies and controls

You create clarity, bring structure, and make security part of how people work every day.

  • You build and improve security maturity programs across multiple teams or regions
  • You understand risk management frameworks and apply them in complex environments
  • You support audits and know how to keep evidence structured and ready
  • You work with modern security ecosystems, including cloud security (Azure), SIEM, SOC, CIAM, PAM, or ServiceNow
  • You bring hands-on experience with Security-by-Design in projects and procurement
  • Certifications like CISSP, CISM, or ISO 27001 Lead Implementer/Auditor strengthen your profile
  • You communicate clearly, influence stakeholders, and build trust at every level
