Are you a Security professional who wants to rise above yourself, in your profession and as a person? Do you want to be challenged every day? At the TU/e, scientists and students continuously create the unthinkable. The strength of the IT landscape is their key to success and, hence, so are you. These creative minds expect you to offer them a solution for tomorrow that doesn't exist today. Together we are building the high performance backbone that this epicenter of science and technology demands. 

Information security is a high-priority topic at Eindhoven University of Technology. Our research (and other) data is as open as possible, and is protected where it needs to be confidential. The accountability lies with the management of the university, and each individual (student or staff) has their own role to play. Our Security Operations Team has advising, mitigating and auditing responsibilities. This team also translates our security guidelines to tactical and operational activities, and is responsible for analyses and emergency response.  

The position
The two Information Security Officers GRC (Governance Risk Compliance) we are looking for are able to apply information security in all ICT domains, know how to perform a risk assessment and are able to audit the implementation and effectiveness of information security controls. One is therefore more a generalist, in the area of information security (people, process & technology) rather than a specialist within one specific domain. The other one can be more of a (technical) specialist as we want to also be able to provide a helping hand to the scientific departments to increase their security maturity. Understanding the organizational structure and processes of a university is therefore a preference.
