ICT Risk & Vendor Specialist

At Qred, we’re building the world's best bank for small businesses. Since launching 11 years ago, we’ve grown from startup to

profitable fintech scale-up, now generating over 1 billion SEK in annual revenue and supporting 50,000+ entrepreneurs across

Northern Europe. We combine smart technology, real data, and human judgment to make financing simple, fast, and fair. With bold

growth plans and strong momentum across multiple markets, we’re now looking for a ICT Risk & Vendor Specialist for the next phase

of growth.

You will take 1st Line ownership of Qred’s IT vendor landscape, procurement processes, and critical financial systems within the

CTO organization. This role bridges technical operational oversight, vendor project management, and regulatory compliance to

ensure our scaling infrastructure operates securely and efficiently under European banking standards.

• Build and execute Qred’s 1st Line Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) framework, capability mapping, and feature cataloguing to

optimize total cost of ownership.

• Lead operational readiness for DORA compliance by mapping, risk-classifying, and monitoring all critical ICT third-party

service providers.

• Manage end-to-end procurement processes and implementation projects, ensuring full capability utilization and clear

understanding of system boundaries.

• Establish implementation playbooks for onboarding, integration, cutover, and offboarding while translating contract terms into

active SLA monitoring workflows.

• Facilitate cross-functional alignment across Legal, Operations, Cyber Security, and executive leadership, serving as the 1st

Line point of contact for ICT audits.

We are looking for someone with a structured approach to third-party risk, strong project management skills, and a drive to build

scalable frameworks. You bring the ability to evaluate system capabilities, manage implementation risks, and align technical,

legal, and business stakeholders around clear operational standards.

• Direct working knowledge of regulatory frameworks impacting financial systems and fintech scale-ups, specifically DORA

requirements.

This is the place to be if you’re looking for a place to grow. Qred is growing fast, and our Qredsters along with it. With a

non-bureaucratic organization and delegated responsibilities, we make sure there’s a short path from idea to action. In addition

to our great culture, you get to work with the latest cutting-edge techniques, full ownership, and last but not least a bunch of

great competent colleagues to learn from!

This is a full-time, permanent position based in our headquarters in Stockholm. We believe our culture thrives when we work

together, which is why we have an office-first approach. To balance this with some flexibility, we have the option of working

remotely one day per week. We review applications on a rolling basis and while the start date is flexible, the right candidate can

join us immediately.
