Junior Information Security Specialist
Are you enthusiastic about IT Security and a complex IT landscape? And would you like to be part of a journey aiming at placing Tryg as the best insurance company in the Nordics?
About the role | Governance and communication
You will be part of the Infosec Orchestration team, which plays a key role in ensuring Information Security across the Tryg Group, from a 2nd line of defense position.
As a Junior Infosec Specialist, you bring a foundational understanding of IT security technologies and architecture. You are eager to learn about technical vulnerabilities and Information Security risks. You support the governance and management of information security under the guidance of senior team members, contributing to both day-to-day work, as well as tactical and strategic initiatives.
You contribute to all the department's core tasks, which include:
- Maintenance and implementation of the Information Security policy and strategic initiatives to strengthen and mature IT security
- Measure infosec maturity, perform risk assessments, and report the results to our major stakeholders
- Oversight tasks, which we carry out through formalized control processes, but also through an active involvement in projects. With help from the rest of the team, you will have a responsibility to develop our ability to perform value-adding control work, by designing and implementing more tool supported controls
- Creating awareness about good Infosec behavior across the organization
You will assist in translating the department's oversight activities and advisory into useful management reports. Your role involves helping to simplify a complex landscape of controls, safeguards, and operational risks into clear, accurate, and fact-based messages to support decision-making and prioritization.
The department consists of 17 highly skilled professionals across Denmark, Norway and Sweden. We work to high standards and put great importance into meeting (or exceeding) expectations, all while fostering an environment where collaboration is celebrated and having fun is encouraged.
We belong organizationally to the IT Department (Business IT & Digitalization), but due to the nature of our work, our stakeholders are the whole Tryg Group, and in particular colleagues in all Business Areas with a heavy dependance on Information Systems.
