About the role/team
Independent journalism and free speech depend on people being able to do their work without being watched, hacked, or silenced. That's where this role comes in.
Based across Sweden and Norway, our security team designs, builds, and maintains the cybersecurity tools and services that protect Schibsted, our journalists, and the products we deliver to our customers. We work closely with the rest of the organisation: journalists, editors, IT, AI, legal, infrastructure, network, and collaboration software teams.
What you will be doing
In this role, you will split your time between two missions: building the security infrastructure that protects the company, and working directly with journalists, including those operating in high-risk environments in order to keep their sources, communications, and digital assets safe.
Design and implement security systems and architecture: network segmentation, firewalls, IDS/IPS, VPNs, endpoint protection.
Work with journalists and editors to assess and reduce risk in their workflows, communications, and equipment. Including support for missions in the field.
Build security protocols that protect journalistic content and communications from unauthorised access, interception, or tampering.
Lead incident response together with our NOC and SOC — threat hunting, investigation, and digital forensics.
Run security assessments and turn findings into concrete risk-reduction strategies.
What we are looking for
Academic background in cybersecurity, computer science, or similar.
1–3 years in an IT security role, with hands-on experience implementing security controls and tooling.
Working knowledge of SIEM, EDR, DLP, and vulnerability scanning tools.
Solid grasp of networking, operating systems, and cloud platforms.
Comfort communicating with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
The position is based in Oslo and requires regular interactions with journalists. Fluency in English and Norwegian is required.
What we offer you:
You will join a young team where the work is real from day one. There is room to take ownership, shape how we do things, and grow fast. And the work matters, what we do keeps journalists and their sources safe and help keep free speech protected.
