Do you enjoy working with people and are you able to initiate far-reaching structural improvements and bring them to a successful conclusion? Then we are looking for you as Head of Security Governance & Assurance.

  • You plan and coordinate the implementation of your team's security-related projects, such as security and risk assessments, audits, supply chain assessments or awareness measures. You ensure close coordination and acceptance with your stakeholders outside your team and provide hands-on support where necessary.

  • You are well versed with the current relevant legislation (e.g. NIS-2, GDPR, ...), security standards (ISO 27000, NIST,...) and best practices (OWASP, ISACA...). Your strong theoretical technical background as well as your high affinity for business topics enables you to use this knowledge profitably in an agile digital organization.
  • You are a constant learner who is interested in various topics relating to information security, technology and business, as well as leadership and personal growth. You live this mindset authentically and pass it on within and outside your team.
  • You are a team player who leads by example at all times, has a bias for action and excellent assertiveness, and is able to act constructively and create a positive environment even in difficult situations. Your understanding of your counterpart and your commitment help you to gain the necessary trust in the organization.
