Senior Information Security Manager - Cloud

An ISMS delivers real value when teams experience it as a practical enabler and compliance evidence is generated organically from daily operations rather than stressful audit sprints. Together with our existing security team, you will translate normative requirements into actionable policies, guide risk decisions, and steer the ongoing evolution of our security certifications.

Tasks

• Operate and advance our ISMS across core components: Scope, Control Catalog, Statement of Applicability, and Management Review.
• Manage the end-to-end risk lifecycle from identification and evaluation to treatment decisions, maintaining the central risk register with assigned ownership.
• Oversee the full policy lifecycle including drafting, reviewing, approving, communicating, and managing formal exception workflows.
• Plan and accompany internal and external audits, coordinating evidence collection, sampling reviews, and corrective action tracking.
• Contribute to our certification roadmap and prepare its expansion into further international target markets.
• Establish structured audit readiness routines across software development, IT operations, and corporate units.
• Act as the primary interface to Privacy, Legal, regulatory bodies, and incident response teams, managing regulatory notification obligations.
• Serve as a trusted advisor for internal teams, business leaders, and external auditors regarding security controls and compliance posture.

Qualifications

• You combine strong risk methodology with an understanding of operational reality and articulate communication.
• Multiple years of practical experience with standardized information security management systems and cybersecurity attestations.
• Proven audit and compliance experience in at least two certified domains (e.g., ISO/IEC 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz, BSI C5, or PCI DSS).
• Proficient risk management methodology and the ability to translate technical concepts into sound business risk statements.
• Demonstrated composure and competence in facilitating external audit engagements and liaising with assessors.
• High editorial precision with the ability to draft clear, concise, and enforceable corporate policies.
• Experience partnering with technical engineering and cloud operations teams without imposing administrative bottlenecks.
• Strong facilitation and stakeholder management skills up to executive leadership.
• Business fluency in German (C2 level) and English (minimum C1 level) in both written and spoken communication.
• Nice to have:
  Familiarity with privacy information management frameworks (e.g., ISO 27701).
  Knowledge of European regulatory standards such as GDPR, NIS-2, or DORA.
  Experience with cross-framework control mapping and modern GRC automation tooling.
