The role

Join the Leading Group in Animal Care!

Grupo IskayPet is born from the union of the Kiwoko ecosystems (physical and online stores, Mundo Belleza grooming salons, and Kivet Veterinary Centers) and Tiendanimal (physical and online stores, Salón de Belleza grooming salons, and Clinicanimal Veterinary Centers) following the acquisition by EMEFIN, a Peruvian family business group with over 80 years of experience in retail. Both ecosystems maintain their own identities while combining capabilities to offer the most complete proposal in pet care.

Today, with a presence in Spain and Portugal, more than 300 workplaces, and 4,000 people, we work to be benchmarks in animal welfare, under our mission: "To care for animals and make life better".

We are currently looking for a person for the position of Junior Cybersecurity Governance and Management Technician in the Digital area for our MADRID offices.

What you'll do

• Under the supervision and leadership of the Cybersecurity Manager, develop and evolve the Information Security Management System using the GRC Cyber tool.

• Maintain and improve the controls map, ensuring its relationship with risks, policies, evidence, and owners.

• Manage the lifecycle of security exceptions, including their registration, justification, approval, monitoring, and review.

• Maintain the security incident register and the traceability of associated actions and lessons learned.

• Integrate requirements, findings, and action plans from audits, risk assessments, and other control reviews into the ISMS.

• Prepare metrics, dashboards, and periodic reports on risks, controls, exceptions, incidents, and action plans.

• Collaborate on the integration of Eramba with Jira to improve the operational monitoring of actions, evidence, and workflows.

• Adapt and maintain in Jira the catalog of services offered by Cyber, along with their requests and associated workflows.

• Keep the ISMS documentation updated in Confluence, ensuring its order, consistency, versioning, and ease of consultation.

• Coordinate with IT, business, Risk, and Audit teams the collection of information and the monitoring of actions until their closure.

We are looking for a person with

• A real desire to learn and build a career in cybersecurity governance, risk, and compliance, while maintaining a connection with technological and business reality.

• Rigor in documenting, relating information, following up, and closing tasks.

• Curiosity and judgment to ask questions, contrast evidence, and propose improvements.

• Ability to convert requirements and findings into clear and traceable actions.

• Progressive autonomy, without losing the ability to escalate doubts and work under supervision.

• A position with direct support from the Cybersecurity Manager and exposure to the construction of the group's Cyber function.
