    About the project

    Security is a core pillar of our business, and our Information Security Advisory & Testing function plays a critical role in enabling secure growth across the organization.
    The Security Advisory team acts as an internal consulting partner, providing expert guidance on data security, identity governance, and modern Data Security Posture Management (DSPM). We work closely with Corporate Systems, engineering teams, product owners, and business stakeholders to ensure that sensitive data is properly classified, protected, and governed across the enterprise.
    The team is structured across two core domains: Identity & Access Governance (internal access control and identity management) and Data Security & DSPM (data classification, data flow visibility, and data leakage prevention). Together, we strengthen the company’s data security posture and promote responsible data usage across all functions.
    THE CHALLENGE:
    As the Lead IAM Expert, you will define and drive the strategic direction of our data-centric security program. Reporting to the VP, Information Security Advisory & Testing, you will lead a specialized global team and act as a senior internal consultant on data protection, identity governance, and secure architecture.
    This role combines leadership, advisory, and hands-on expertise. You may lead a team of security professionals or operate as a senior individual contributor, depending on your profile and strengths. In either case, you will own and evolve our data security strategy while strengthening collaboration across corporate technology and product environments.
