An ISMS delivers real value when teams experience it as a practical enabler and compliance evidence is generated organically from daily operations rather than stressful audit sprints. Together with our existing security team, you will translate normative requirements into actionable policies, guide risk decisions, and steer the ongoing evolution of our security certifications.

Tasks

• Operate and advance our ISMS across core components: Scope, Control Catalog, Statement of Applicability, and Management Review.
• Manage the end-to-end risk lifecycle from identification and evaluation to treatment decisions, maintaining the central risk register with assigned ownership.
• Oversee the full policy lifecycle including drafting, reviewing, approving, communicating, and managing formal exception workflows.
• Plan and accompany internal and external audits, coordinating evidence collection, sampling reviews, and corrective action tracking.
• Contribute to our certification roadmap and prepare its expansion into further international target markets.
• Establish structured audit readiness routines across software development, IT operations, and corporate units.
• Act as the primary interface to Privacy, Legal, regulatory bodies, and incident response teams, managing regulatory notification obligations.
• Serve as a trusted advisor for internal teams, business leaders, and external auditors regarding security controls and compliance posture.

• Nice to have:
  Familiarity with privacy information management frameworks (e.g., ISO 27701).
  Knowledge of European regulatory standards such as GDPR, NIS-2, or DORA.
  Experience with cross-framework control mapping and modern GRC automation tooling.
