Executive Security

We are introducing a unique opportunity in strengthening Saab's Executive Security Team! If you have a passion for security, high analytical ability, and would thrive working in a global context with operative security work and great individual responsibilities, this role is for you! We offer a career opportunity where no two days are the same, where both your theoretical and practical skills are utilized. You will become part of an ambitious team who appreciates one another's diversity and benefits from each other's skills and experience.



Your role

In the Executive Security team you will work with personnel security and alternate between different responsibility areas. You will work with travel security, logistics planning, as well as meeting and event coordination (both in Sweden and internationally). This role also involves a significant amount of travel to locations with varying security conditions and infrastructure, which can at times demand your exceptional flexibility and judgement.

Your daily tasks can include (but are not limited to) carrying out:

* Security analysis, advice and operational support related to the executive management team's internal and external meetings
* Risk assessments, operative coordination and planning as well as collaboration and support in relation to national and international assignments. Transport assignments can also arise.
* Security planning, coordination and execution of VIP events, both national and international.

You are comfortable sharing your knowledge with colleagues, developing plans, thinking on your feet, making quick sound decisions, exercising good judgement and demonstrate a solid administrative aptitude. You see physical activity and fitness as an essential part of your everyday life.

This position requires a valid driving license as well as fluency in Swedish and English (both verbally and written).
