  • You coordinate transversal activities across teams in a complex operational environment and support technical stakeholders during implementation.
  • You apply security good practices and ensure alignment with relevant regulatory frameworks such as NIS2.
  • You structure architectural work with clarity, ensuring proper planning, documentation and follow-up.
  • You communicate effectively with both technical teams and decision-makers and maintain strong collaboration across business units.

What are we looking for?

  • You apply solid understanding of operational IT environments, including systems, networks, identity management, endpoints, cloud basics and monitoring.
  • You understand and apply cybersecurity principles and relevant regulatory frameworks (NIS2).
  • You structure operational processes, governance models and architecture documentation with clarity and precision.
  • You use PRINCE2, TOGAF and UML at a junior–intermediate level within architecture or governance initiatives.
  • You manage stakeholders proactively and communicate efficiently across technical and leadership levels.
  • You operate comfortably in complex environments requiring coordination, documentation quality and disciplined follow-up.
  • You are fluent in French, have at least passive knowledge of Dutch, and have a working level of English.
