We strive to create a healthy collaborative work environment where every employee feels valued and inspired to contribute to our vision “Until every human has their health”. If you’re seeking a career that offers purpose and aligns with your values join us and start your #Redcareer today. 

As an AI-first, app-driven, multi-country e-commerce platform, we are scaling fast and continuously modernising our technology landscape with strong ambitions around AI integration and cloud-native architecture. In this environment, we are looking for a security leader who integrates security deeply into product and engineering — and ensures that security goes hand in hand with speed, scalability and customer trust. 

As CISO, you will lead our security organisation and report directly to the CIO.  Together, you will shape a modern platform and security strategy that supports innovation while maintaining a resilient and future-ready foundation. 

About your tasks: 

• Integrate security across the entire product lifecycle by embedding it into product discovery, development, and release processes, while establishing and strengthening a DevSecOps-driven Secure SDLC that incorporates threat modelling, security engineering, and automated controls.  
• Build a platform security mindset, ensuring cloud-native architecture, app-first thinking and AI initiatives are secure by design.
• Reduce friction for engineering teams through automation, smart guardrails and scalable security patterns.
• Drive pragmatic risk management aligned with business growth — ensuring security accelerates innovation rather than creating bureaucracy.
• Ensure regulatory and compliance requirements are met through scalable, well-designed security capabilities.
• Act as the owner of enterprise security, advising the CIO, IT leadership team and Board on risk, resilience and strategic investments.
• Lead and develop a high-performing security team of 8, fostering a culture of ownership, continuous improvement, and collaboration across engineering and business functions.

About you: 

• You have led security in a digital platform or product-centric environment, and in traditional GRC structures.
• You have a strong understanding of DevSecOps, cloud-native environments, security engineering and product security integration and you are able to lead these workstreams. 
• You combine strategic thinking with hands-on depth and understand how to balance risk awareness with commercial reality.
• You are a pragmatic, solution-oriented leader who believes security should empower teams and protect customers at the same time.
• You think in platforms, not in silos. You build scalable systems, not control towers. 
• Shape and secure our AI-driven capabilities, including data protection, model risks and responsible AI usage.
