IT Governance & Compliance Manager to Aviator
About this role
Do you want to shape the future of secure and compliant IT and OT operations in a highly regulated, safety‑critical environment? This is a key role where you will combine structure, regulatory expertise and change leadership to create real, lasting impact across an international organization.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As IT Governance & Compliance Manager, you will own the full lifecycle of IT and OT governance at Aviator. You develop, implement and maintain policies, standards and frameworks aligned with ISO/IEC 27001, NIS2, GDPR, EU AI Act and other relevant regulations. You are responsible for IT and cybersecurity risk management, including the risk register and remediation follow-up, and you plan and lead internal and external audits to ensure findings are closed with evidence.

You also oversee third‑party and vendor risk management, business continuity and disaster recovery governance, and act as the primary point of contact towards auditors, regulators and external stakeholders. The role is based at the Head Office at Stockholm Arlanda, with some on‑site presence required.
