We are seeking a skilled and passionate Cybersecurity professional to complete our newly built Global Security Operations & Incident Response team at Inter IKEA. Reporting to the Group Manager, you will work with a team of cyber experts to enhance our security operations capabilities and drive initiatives to identify and manage cyber risks facing the IKEA value chain.

In this role, you will be responsible for enhancing several key capability areas, including: Threat Management, Incident Management, Vulnerability Management, Cyber Threat Intelligence, and Cyber Assurance. You will have the opportunity to work with a network of expertise across Inter IKEA, developing a comprehensive approach to security operations and building trusting relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
