IT Security Lead – EU Railways



IT Security Lead – EU Railways

Banedanmark

Brussels, Belgium


Join the largest transport technology programme in Europe!
Can you lead the development of a European IT security framework for railways? And are you ready for an international career? Then here is a great opportunity for you.

You will be working for the Signalling Programme in Banedanmark and posted in Brussels to lead the IT security aspects of ERTMS. ERTMS is being implemented across Europe, and the results of your work are essential to the Danish Signalling Programme as well as other ambitious ERTMS programmes in Europe.

Unique and highly influential position - based in Brussels

After an introduction period of app. 3 months in Copenhagen, you will be based in Brussels for approximately 3 years. In Brussels you will join about 10 colleagues in the ERTMS Users Group offices and cooperate with experts from all over Europe. ERTMS Users Group is a European Economic Interest group established in 1995 representing the major ERTMS projects in the development of common European Signalling standards (more info at http://www.ertms.be). 

As a part of ERTMS, a European IT security framework governs and protects ERTMS and its supporting IT and telecom systems. The IT security framework is continuously evolved and standardised in a joint effort between the national railways, large international ERTMS vendors, the European ERTMS regulation bodies and several other stakeholders. 

In order to ensure acceptable protection and interoperability across Europe, the relevant stakeholders need to align on governance, process, technology, awareness and training. 

You will be in a unique and highly influential position to drive this process, which will challenge your technical competence and leadership capabilities. Your authority and ability to use and demonstrate your deep insight into IT security will be essential to unite the stakeholders and to achieve consensus. 

Your success will also depend on your ability to explain and justify IT security requirements to executives, political decision makers etc.

Lead security working groups

As our IT Security Lead you drive the process to refine and implement the strategic objectives of the ERTMS Users Group. Your tasks include leading and facilitating working group meetings with highly complex stakeholder structures and representing the ERTMS Users Group in European forums. Furthermore you are responsible for the technical specifications and all other documentation needed for the development of the European IT security framework for ERTMS based signalling.

Experienced IT security professional

You must have experience with IT security management for critical business – preferably within a safety related sector. You master the application of information security standards and guidelines such as ISA99/IEC 62443, Common Criteria, NIST etc. Furthermore, experience with COTS security concepts and protocols like PKI and TLS will be an advantage. 

You are technically well-founded in order to lead discussions of the technical setup. At the same time, you are a highly skilled negotiator and you can lead meetings effectively - with a pragmatic approach. You network easily and manage to build strong relations to important stakeholders.
