As part of the Thermo Fisher Scientific team, you’ll discover meaningful work that makes a positive impact on a global scale. Join our colleagues in bringing our Mission to life every single day to enable our customers to make the world healthier, cleaner and safer. We provide our global teams with the resources needed to achieve individual career goals while helping to take science a step beyond by developing solutions for some of the world’s toughest challenges, like protecting the environment, making sure our food is safe or helping find cures for cancer.

- Review new products, AI initiatives, and data use cases for regulatory compliance
- Design and implement controls to prevent data breaches, misuse, and unauthorized access
- Lead privacy impact assessments and risk evaluations
- Ensure compliance with domestic and international data protection regulations (e.g., GDPR, cross-border data transfer requirements)
3. Incident Prevention & Response
- Establish structured security incident prevention and response processes
- Lead post-incident analysis and remediation planning
- Reduce organizational exposure to regulatory and reputational risks
4. Security Awareness & Cross-Functional Leadership
- Lead security and privacy awareness programs
- Facilitate internal security working groups and governance forums
- Partner with Legal, IT, Product, HR, and Executive teams

Preferred Qualification
- Experience in global or multinational organizations
- Hands-on experience in ISMS-P audit or consulting
