Arbetsbeskrivning

Atlantic Container Line AB (ACL), part of the Grimaldi Group, is the world's oldest continuously operating container line and has been connecting Europe and North America since 1967. Operating the world's largest combination container and Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO) vessels, ACL is a key link in global trade.

As our business continues to evolve, information security plays an increasingly vital role in supporting operational resilience, customer trust and regulatory compliance. We are now looking for our first in-house Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) to lead the next phase of our security journey.

This is a unique opportunity to build and shape the information security function within an international organization operating critical infrastructure and global supply chains. As CISO, you will own and drive ACL's information security agenda, providing strategic leadership while also taking a hands-on role in developing governance, processes and security capabilities. You will partner closely with executive leadership, internal stakeholders and external partners to establish a modern, risk-based approach to security that supports both business growth and regulatory requirements.

You will play a key role in ensuring compliance with NIS2 and other relevant frameworks, while helping the organization strengthen its cyber resilience, security culture and overall maturity.

Joining ACL at this stage means you will not be starting from scratch. Foundational work has already been established together with experienced external partners, providing you with a solid platform from which to further develop and embed security across the business.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead and continuously develop ACL's information security strategy and roadmap.

• Drive implementation and ongoing compliance with NIS2, GDPR and related regulatory requirements.

• Establish and maintain policies, governance frameworks, risk management processes and security controls.

• Act as a trusted advisor to senior management and business stakeholders on security, risk and compliance matters.

• Coordinate security initiatives across ACL and within The Grimaldi Group.

• Manage relationships with external security partners, auditors and regulatory bodies.

• Support incident response, business continuity and cyber resilience planning.

• Drive security awareness and help build a strong security culture throughout the organization.

You are a security professional who enjoys creating structure, influencing stakeholders and translating complex security requirements into practical business solutions. You combine strategic thinking with a pragmatic, hands-on approach and are comfortable working across organizational boundaries.

You may already hold a CISO position or be ready to take the next step from a senior information security, cyber security or governance role.

We believe you have:

• Several years of experience within information security, cyber security, governance, risk management or compliance.

• Good understanding of regulatory and security frameworks such as NIS2, ISO 27001, NIST or similar, as well as GDPR.

• Experience leading projects and driving initiatives across multiple stakeholders.

• Ability to communicate effectively with both technical specialists and business leaders.

• Experience working in an international environment.

• Professional proficiency in both English and Swedish.

The following are considered advantageous:

• Experience from critical infrastructure, transportation, logistics or other regulated industries.

• Knowledge of cloud environments such as Microsoft Azure or Oracle Cloud.

• Relevant certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or similar.

At ACL, you'll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact in a business that operates globally and plays an important role in international trade. You'll work closely with senior leadership, influence strategic decisions and help shape the future of security within a company where your expertise will matter from day one.

We offer a collaborative international environment, short decision-making paths and the opportunity to build something lasting within a respected global organization. The position is based in Gothenburg and involves close collaboration with colleagues across Europe and North America. Some travel may be required.

ACL is partnering with Ants Tech Recruiters in this recruitment. You’re welcome to reach out to Gabriella Hagström at [email protected] if you have any questions.

As we're entering the summer holiday period, we'll continue the recruitment process in the middle of August. We look forward to your application.
