Description

This role is critical to safeguarding programme delivery, ensuring that security risks are identified, controlled, and resolved before they impact system integrity, availability, compliance, or operational acceptance.

In this role, you will act as the programme security authority for SSC’s IRIS² scope, owning and leading the overall security management approach across a complex, multi-partner ground segment environment.

You will:

Ensure that security requirements, controls, and governance are consistently implemented across engineering, operations, suppliers, and programme delivery.
Operate with end-to-end security authority within programme governance, including the authority to escalate, require corrective actions, and prevent progression where security risks or compliance gaps are not adequately addressed.
Balance delivery objectives with strict security and compliance requirements in a highly regulated environment, ensuring pragmatism without compromising integrity.
Operate at programme leadership level, engaging senior stakeholders across SSC, partners, and customer organisations.

This role is for you if you:

Have led security management in complex technical or infrastructure programmes
Are comfortable operating across cybersecurity, physical security, and information security domains
Can drive structured risk management, compliance, and assurance in multi-stakeholder environments
Are confident escalating risks and influencing decisions at programme level
Thrive in regulated environments with strong requirements on evidence and traceability

Requirements

Proven experience in security management within space, defence, telecommunications, or critical infrastructure programmes
Strong understanding of cybersecurity, information security, physical security, and risk management principles
Experience with contractual security requirements, audits, accreditation, and customer-facing governance
Ability to coordinate multidisciplinary teams across engineering, operations, and suppliers
Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, including reporting and escalation
Structured approach to requirements management, compliance tracking, and documentation control

Highly valuable:

Experience in satellite communications, ground segment, or secure network infrastructure
Experience with EU institutional programmes or ESA environments
Familiarity with accreditation processes, classified environments, or sensitive systems
Experience coordinating supplier and subcontractor security compliance

Responsibilities

Own and drive the overall security management framework across the IRIS² ground segment scope
Define and maintain security strategy, governance, and plans aligned with programme requirements
Ensure security requirements are identified, allocated, implemented, and verified across all lifecycle phases
Drive security risk management, including threat analysis, mitigation planning, residual risk reporting, and accreditation support
Lead and enforce security governance, including reviews, reporting, decision support, and escalation of issues
Drive alignment of security across engineering, operations, IVVQ, and supplier activities
Oversee and enforce supplier and subcontractor security compliance and assurance activities
Manage, track, and escalate security incidents, vulnerabilities, and non-conformities

Benefits

A robust, credible, and consistently applied security framework across all programme areas
High visibility and control over security risks, issues, and compliance status
Strong integration of security into engineering, delivery, operations, and acceptance processes
Successful audits, accreditation activities, and programme acceptance with minimal findings
