Role overview
The Customization Group (TCG), a global leader in mass customization and print-on-demand e-commerce with 750+ people and 40+ nationalities, is looking for a Cyber Security Lead to strengthen and lead information security across the group, including shops, production sites, and connecting platforms. In this role, you will have senior ownership of cyber security for a multi-country group, working closely with IT, development, legal, and management as the central point for all things security. You will build on existing processes and controls to raise the security bar across online shops, internal platforms, cloud and on-premise infrastructure, and production sites.
Responsibilities
- Drive the security roadmap. Review our current setup, sharpen priorities, and keep the plan moving with the business.
- Strengthen detection and response. Further develop our incident response process, from monitoring and triage through to containment, recovery and lessons learned.
- Harden our platforms. Work with development and infrastructure teams on secure architecture, access management, vulnerability management and penetration testing.
- Manage third-party risk. Review vendors, partners and integrations, and make sure the people we work with meet our standards.
- Keep us compliant. Translate GDPR, NIS2 and customer requirements into practical controls, and support audits and customer security questionnaires.
- Build awareness. Make security part of how 750+ people work, through training, clear policies and being approachable.
- Use automation and AI. We are an AI-first company that builds its own internal tools, so there is room to automate monitoring, reporting and routine checks.
Requirements
- 5+ years in cyber security, with hands-on experience in incident response, security operations or security consulting.
- Broad technical grounding across cloud and on-premise environments, networks, identity and web application security.
- Incident experience. You have been in the room when something went wrong and know how to lead calmly through it.
- Regulatory fluency. Comfortable with GDPR and NIS2; familiarity with ISO 27001 or similar frameworks.
- Pragmatic judgement. You can tell the difference between a real risk and a theoretical one, and explain both to non-technical leaders.
- Continuous improvement mindset. You take what works, find what can be better, and make it happen.
- English at a professional level
- You do not want a purely advisory role; here you own outcomes
- You do not only want to work on greenfield projects; here you build on and improve what is already running
- You do not see security mainly as saying no; here the job is making it safe to say yes
