Information Security Lead

Information Security Lead

Are you a security leader who enjoys working at the intersection of business, risk, and technology?

Solita, the international mothership of Future Mind, is looking for an Information Security Lead to shape and continuously develop information security across the Solita Group. This is a company-wide leadership role where you’ll have the opportunity to influence how security is managed across countries and business areas, while working closely with both technology experts and senior business stakeholders.

If you’re looking for a role where security is not just about compliance, but about enabling sustainable business growth, this could be an interesting next step.

What is this role about?

Solita is a rapidly growing European technology, data, and design consulting company. With more than 2,300 professionals across 8 countries, we work on meaningful challenges through strategic consulting, service design, software development, data and analytics, AI, and cloud services.

As Information Security Lead, you will help ensure that information security remains a trusted business enabler as Solita continues to grow.

You’ll be responsible for coordinating and developing information security across the Solita Group, balancing security and risk management with business needs, customer expectations, and operational efficiency.

This is a role with a broad scope and significant room to shape the way security develops across the organization.

What will you be doing?

You will:

• Own and lead information security across the Solita Group, ensuring that security risks are managed in line with the company's risk appetite and business objectives.

• Define, drive, and continuously develop Solita's security strategy and roadmap together with business leaders, customers, and technology teams.

• Ensure compliance with customer commitments, legal and regulatory requirements, industry certifications, and stakeholder expectations.

• Lead and develop Solita's security team, covering areas such as security governance, risk and compliance, security monitoring, and incident response.

• Act as a trusted advisor to leadership, providing guidance on cybersecurity risks, emerging threats, investment priorities, and strategic decisions.

• Promote security as a business enabler that supports growth, innovation, customer trust, and competitive advantage.

• Continuously develop Solita's security capabilities so that they remain risk-based, scalable, efficient, and aligned with the evolving threat landscape.

The role requires close collaboration across different countries, functions, and levels of the organization.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for an experienced security leader who can connect business objectives with practical, risk-based security solutions.

You thrive in a collaborative and low-hierarchy environment, where influence comes through credibility, trust, and strong communication. You understand that effective security is not about creating unnecessary barriers, but about enabling the business while managing risk appropriately.

We expect you to have:

• Relevant education and professional experience in information security, risk management, cybersecurity, or a related field.

• Proven experience leading and developing teams of security professionals and subject matter experts.

• Strong knowledge of Information Security Management Systems (ISMS), particularly ISO 27001, and enterprise risk management practices.

• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain security risks and recommendations to both technical and non-technical audiences.

• A demonstrated ability to build trust, influence decision-making, and foster security awareness across an organization.

• A pragmatic and business-oriented mindset, with the ability to balance risk mitigation, operational efficiency, and business objectives.

• Fluency in English.

Nordic language skills are beneficial but not mandatory.

It’s a plus if you also have:

• Experience working in an international business environment.

• Experience in technology consulting, software development, or another technology-driven business.

• Experience with customer-facing security programs, audits, and compliance requirements.

What can you expect from Solita?

This is an opportunity to take on a company-wide leadership role in a growing technology organization and have a real impact on how information security develops across the group.

As Solita is an innovative technology company, you’ll work close to emerging technologies and security challenges. You’ll collaborate with technical experts, business leaders, customers, and colleagues across different countries.

We believe in:

• Trust and autonomy – you’ll have room to shape the role and influence how things are done.

• Collaboration over hierarchy – we work together across teams, countries, and areas of expertise.

• Continuous learning – we encourage people to develop their expertise and share knowledge with others.

• Meaningful impact – your work will influence our customers, colleagues, and the way we operate as a company.

• A human culture – we value diversity, professionalism, freedom of opinion, and the courage to experiment and learn.

At Solita, you’ll have the opportunity to shape the next phase of our security leadership while helping the business grow sustainably.
