COMPANYHelsing

In this role, you will operate at the intersection of cutting-edge defence technology and sensitive information protection, working on strategically significant programmes in Europe. You will take ownership of classified document lifecycle management—building and maintaining compliance with national security frameworks across multiple entities—while contributing to the expansion of protected operations internationally and the integration of new subsidiaries into our security supervision model. You will guide mandatory awareness sessions, manage personnel vetting processes, prepare classified contract documentation, and support regulatory readiness to ensure our work meets the highest standards of security at a national and alliance level.

The day-to-day responsibilities include:

  • Own the end-to-end administration of classified material—from establishing and maintaining registries and inventory systems to processing incoming and outgoing materials, verifying integrity and completeness, and managing receipt documentation and confirmation workflows.
  • Ensure full regulatory compliance and immediate escalation of any anomalies in the handling of classified materials.
  • Support enhanced personnel vetting processes and coordinate national and international clearance procedures.
  • Conduct mandatory security awareness sessions across all lifecycle stages, including pre-travel briefings.
  • Maintain personnel security records and ensure appropriate access controls are in place.
  • Support classified contract management (domestic and international), including the preparation of security requirement documentation for subcontractors.
  • Coordinate and execute visit control procedures for both domestic and international visits, including the preparation and processing of visit requests, verification of visitor clearances, and liaison with national and allied security authorities.
  • Train project teams and leaders on the secure handling of classified materials and compliance expectations.

You should apply if you demonstrate hands-on expertise in industrial security or classified information management within defence, government, or critical infrastructure environments and hold an active security clearance.
