- Conduct technical security assessments of application, system or network, documenting the security posture and conformance to Betsson’s security control framework.
- Partake in security configuration reviews to ensure applications, networks and systems are compliant with policies and standards.
- Ensure policies, procedures, and standards are current whilst also developed, reviewed and updated periodically.
- Interface with external auditors in preparation for novel gaming license applications, and during ISMS audits by providing supporting evidence and coordinating meetings as necessary.

- Familiarity with GRC systems and processes, strong organizational skills, and problem resolution abilities.
- Experience in business systems and process planning
- Project management skillset and a can-do attitude
What we offer
Much like riding a rollercoaster, sometimes life at Betsson can be lightning fast with twists and turns but always FUN! Then again, what else would you expect from a business 75% millennial and 1700 strong, spread across 7 offices with 900 based out of our Malta HQ alone! We recognise it may not be for the faint-hearted, but if you’re a go-getter, initiator and adrenaline junkie, always striving to push the boundaries and challenge yourself, then you’ll fit right in.
