Job description

IT SECURITY SPECIALIST - PROJECT & RISK TO ASKER HEALTHCARE GROUP

IT Security Specialist. Departments: Data/IT. Country: Sweden. City: Malmö. Application Deadline: 15 Jul 2026.

YOU WILL

As IT Security Specialist, you will work at group level with all companies that are part of the Asker Healthcare Group. Since we continuously grow through acquisitions, you will play an important role in driving and coordinating security initiatives across a decentralised international environment. You will work closely with and support local IT teams across Europe and contribute to strengthening the overall security posture and risk maturity within the group. The role combines project leadership, IT security risk management and technical advisory responsibilities.

The role has a broad scope and offers the opportunity to work with both strategic and hands‑on security topics in an international setting. Examples of areas included in the role are:

• Lead and coordinate group-wide IT security initiatives and projects
• Drive onboarding of acquired companies into group security solutions, standards and frameworks
• Introduce new security tools for group companies
• Own and consolidate the group-level IT security risk picture based on input from local companies and tooling data
• Identify trends, recurring risks and systemic weaknesses, and translate them into group-level priorities and actions
• Act as a technical discussion partner within Microsoft cloud security (Azure, M365, Entra ID, Defender etc.) and other security solutions
• Contribute to governance, compliance and decision material (ISO 27001, NIS2)

We offer you a role in a global and dynamic environment where collaboration, trust and continuous improvement are central parts of our culture. You will join a skilled and supportive team with a high level of competence, freedom and responsibility.

The position is a permanent role based at our office in Malmö. Some travel within Europe may occur as part of the role.

YOU ARE

We expect you to have several years of experience within IT Security, Cyber Security, Risk Management and/or Security Governance. You have experience leading initiatives and driving work forward in organisations where collaboration and influence are more important than formal authority. You are comfortable working independently while also contributing as part of a small and specialised team. You have a strong understanding of IT security risk management as well as frameworks and regulations such as ISO 27001 and NIS2. You also have solid technical understanding within Microsoft cloud security environments, including Azure, M365 and Entra ID. Experience from decentralised organisations, international environments or acquisition-heavy businesses is considered meritorious. Since the role includes many interactions with local companies and stakeholders across Europe, it is important that you are communicative, pedagogical and able to build trust. You are structured and pragmatic in your way of working and know how to balance persistence with flexibility. Good knowledge in English, both spoken and written, is required. Relevant certifications such as CISSP or equivalent are meritorious.
