At the Swedish Migration Agency (Migrationsverket), we work with one of our time's major societal issues—migration. We are approximately 6,000 people strong, and we have an unusually important mission!
The Agency conducts extensive development work in civil defense and coordinated efforts in migration and asylum, with mandates from both the government and the EU.
The Migration Agency's Security Department is part of headquarters and holds overall responsibility for security and preparedness throughout the agency. The Security Department is in an expansion phase, and we are now seeking you to help strengthen our work in business security. As a business security expert, you will be based in the Security Unit, where we are responsible for the agency's security protection, business security, and where experts in physical security, information security, and security protection are co-located.
Operations are subject to complex threat landscapes and are supported by technical systems with high demands for security and availability. We offer varied, stimulating, and responsible work with excellent opportunities for personal development.
Job Description
We are seeking someone with solid experience in systematic security work such as developing operational analyses, risk and vulnerability assessments, planning, control, and monitoring within security protection/business security and close to operations. We view positively if you have broad experience in both security protection and business security, as this role will span both areas.
We offer stimulating and responsible work with excellent opportunities for personal development.
You will participate in developing systematic work within security protection and business security through planning, developing analyses, and monitoring. The position alternates between strategic work such as development, governance, and monitoring with operational support to the business.
Who Are You?
The work requires that you are structured, independent, and have the will and ability to take your own initiatives. Your ability to interpret, evaluate, and handle complex, protected, and societally critical information is crucial in selecting measures and prioritizing. To succeed in this role, you have an exceptionally strong collaborative ability and are driven to achieve the right impact throughout the organization.
You also possess a pedagogical ability—this is essential for reaching the organization and creating understanding of security protection and business security at different levels. In your work, you demonstrate high integrity and an exceptionally strong security awareness. As we strive for broad roles in the Security Department, other qualified tasks may occur based on operational needs and your own interests and experience.
To thrive and succeed, you should be structured and clear, yet responsive to operational needs. You are skilled at collaboration. You listen and communicate clearly, ensuring messages get through and expectations are clear to all involved parties. You approach challenges constructively. You plan, organize, and prioritize work efficiently, and you set and meet deadlines. You take initiative, launch activities, and achieve results.
You also see the bigger picture and consider the broader perspective. You understand your role and area but simultaneously act in the best interest of the entire organization.
We place great emphasis on personal suitability. Since this position is classified, it requires that you are a Swedish citizen.
We are seeking someone who has:
academic education deemed relevant for the position, or other education combined with relevant experience for the role
several years of current experience in business security
documented experience working with analysis, planning, control, and monitoring of security work
documented experience regarding relevant legislation and standards in the field and good knowledge of upcoming legislation, for example within CER
experience in operational development
good ability to express yourself in Swedish, both orally and in writing
It is meritorious if you have:
formal education in the security field and security protection
experience working within security protection
experience working in public administration
experience and knowledge in working strategically within other relevant security areas such as information security
worked with monitoring and developing processes in an agency and/or in a larger organization
experience in project management
Employment with us involves placement in a security classification. A security clearance with criminal records check under the Security Protection Act (2018:585) will therefore be conducted before a hiring decision.
Working in the state means you follow the state values framework. Special demands are also placed on judgment, security thinking, and compliance with applicable laws. We will ask questions during the interview about any previous criminal activity and deficiencies in previous employment. For final candidates, these questions will also be posed to references. Any information obtained will be weighed in the overall assessment of your suitability for the position.
