About the department
The purpose of Global Security Operations (GSO) is to protect value creation in Novo Nordisk by responding to information security incidents and events related to the protection of corporate IT/OT assets, intellectual property, regulated data, and the Novo Nordisk reputation.

- Designing, implementing, and managing the global cyber security infrastructure, systems, and applications across all business units of Novo Nordisk
GSO is presently experiencing a significant transformation due to digital advances, the unprecedented growth of Novo Nordisk’s business globally, and the increasing complexity in the threat landscape. The new leader will spearhead this transformation in close collaboration with other areas within Global Information Security (GIS) and key stakeholders throughout the broader Novo Nordisk organisation.
In addition, the new VP will be an active member of the GIS leadership team, contributing to the overall information security strategy and delivery at Novo Nordisk.
The position is located in the greater Copenhagen area, Denmark.
