Job description:
At Volvo Group, cybersecurity is an essential part of shaping sustainable, safe, and resilient transport and infrastructure solutions for the future. As our digital landscape grows more connected, complex, and business-critical, we are strengthening our capability to understand, evaluate, and manage cyber risk across technologies, processes, and organizations.
We are now looking for a Cyber Risk Management Specialist to help us turn cybersecurity insight into clear, actionable risk understanding. This is a role for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of cyber threats, business impact, governance, controls, and stakeholder collaboration.
In this role, you will support and drive cyber risk management activities across Volvo Group. You will work closely with cybersecurity specialists, IT teams, business stakeholders, governance functions, and leadership to identify, assess, communicate, and follow up cyber risks in a structured and business-relevant way.

Assess control maturity and recommend practical improvement actions.
Support methods, templates, and tools, and facilitate workshops with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Who are you?
You are a structured, analytical, and collaborative cybersecurity professional with a strong interest in cyber risk. You enjoy connecting information across different domains, seeing patterns, and helping others understand what those patterns mean from a risk perspective.You are comfortable working with complex topics, but you do not hide behind complexity. You can explain deep technical or specialized matters in clear, jargon-free language, and you know how to adapt your communication depending on whether you are speaking with engineers, managers, auditors, or senior leaders.You are self-driven, curious, diplomatic, and action-oriented. You like creating clarity, building trust, and enabling progress in cross-functional environments.

Experience supporting or performing cyber risk assessments and turning findings into clear, business-relevant risk statements.
Working knowledge of risk management concepts and common security standards or frameworks (GRC, information security).
Strong communication and facilitation skills in English, with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Structured and proactive way of working: able to plan, document, and drive work forward in cross-functional settings.
Ability to assess control effectiveness and maturity, and translate findings into practical improvement actions.
Nice to have:
Experience with quantitative risk methods (or strong interest in developing in this area).
Experience with GRC or risk management tools and platforms.
Certifications such as CISSP, CISM, CRISC, ISO/IEC 27001, FAIR, or similar.
