• Shape and continuously improve Murex’s information security governance framework, translating policies, standards and control requirements into actionable practices for global teams.
• Drive compliance monitoring by defining evidence expectations, tracking remediation progress and ensuring security requirements are consistently understood and applied.
• Design and improve operating procedures that make control execution, compliance monitoring, security reporting and posture management scalable and reliable.
• Lead or coordinate security assessments, maturity reviews, audit preparation, compliance checks and follow-up of identified gaps across business, IT and security stakeholders.
• Build meaningful security and compliance dashboards that give management a clear view of risks, maturity, control effectiveness and remediation priorities.
• Contribute to Third-Party Risk Management by reviewing supplier assessments, supporting procurement activities and following up on remediation actions with vendors and internal owners.
• Support AI governance initiatives by helping define practical security guardrails, reviewing AI use cases and monitoring risks linked to AI tools, services and autonomous capabilities.
• Act as a trusted security advisor for business and IT teams by qualifying requests, documenting risk-based recommendations and ensuring timely follow-up.
• Partner with IT, Legal, Procurement, Product and business stakeholders to embed security requirements into projects, operations, exceptions and continuous improvement plans.
• Support internal and external audits, client security questionnaires and compliance assessments with clear answers, relevant evidence and sustainable remediation plans.
• Promote a strong security culture through targeted awareness initiatives, practical guidance, communication material and training content adapted to different audiences.

You have 5 to 7 years of experience in information security, with exposure to governance, risk management, compliance, audit, security awareness, advisory or control monitoring activities. You enjoy making security requirements understandable, measurable and actionable for diverse stakeholders.
