About you | A team player 

You bring more than five years of experience within Governance, risk management, compliance, IT governance, or information security, supported by solid knowledge of relevant regulations such as DORA, NIS2, and GDPR. Experience from the insurance sector or another highly regulated industry is an advantage. 

You are confident operating in the intersection of regulation, technology, and large organisations, and you thrive when creating structure in complex environments.  

You have a good understanding of IT architecture, data platforms, and system landscapes. Hands-on technical skills are not required, but the ability to navigate technical contexts is important.  

You hold a great set of people skills and are comfortable engaging with a diverse range of stakeholders across the organization. Combined with a structured approach, a quality-driven mindset, and a pragmatic, solution-oriented attitude, you are a compelling communicator and natural presenter.  

Fluency in Swedish, Norwegian, or Danish, along with professional-level proficiency in English, both verbal and written, is required.
