YOUR ROLE

As Chief Information Security Officer / Head of Information Security, you will take ownership of the company’s information security agenda and help build a robust, pragmatic, and scalable security framework aligned with Gaming1’s growth ambitions.

This is a high-impact role for a senior security professional who combines strategic thinking with operational pragmatism and is comfortable working across governance, risk, compliance, technology, and business functions.

The role currently sits within the broader Compliance and Risk environment, with visibility to senior leadership and the Board on strategic security matters. The CISO will serve as the primary authority on information security governance, policy, and risk management — defining standards and governing risk, while providing clear guidances to IT and Engineering on execution, design, and remediation.
