Senior Cyber Security Third Party Risk Manager

Real programme ownership at a critical moment NIS2 and DORA are live. Eneco operates critical energy infrastructure with a broad supplier ecosystem. You are not maintaining a mature programme - you are shaping what it becomes at exactly the moment it matters most. Influence that goes beyond security This role puts you at the table with Procurement, Legal, Compliance, and the business. TPRM at Eneco is not a back-office function - it is a business-critical capability with executive visibility. A mission that means something Eneco's goal is climate neutrality by 2035. The infrastructure and supplier ecosystem you protect underpins that ambition. The work is serious, the stakes are real, and the organisation is committed.

Eneco operates critical energy infrastructure and depends on a broad ecosystem of technology suppliers and service partners. As that ecosystem grows in complexity, so does the risk it carries - and regulators are paying close attention. NIS2 and DORA are not future considerations here. They are operational realities. As TPRM Lead you own the end-to-end Third Party Risk Management programme - from framework and governance through to supplier assessments, continuous monitoring, and procurement integration. This is not an assessment execution role. You are here to mature the programme, increase its organisational reach, and make third-party cyber risk visible and manageable at every level of the business. You will work from within the CISO Office, partnering with Procurement, Legal, Compliance, Risk, Data Privacy, and IT. You will need to influence without formal authority - and you will have the mandate to do it.

You are a senior TPRM professional who has built or significantly matured a third-party risk programme in a complex enterprise environment. You know how to assess a supplier, but more importantly you know how to design a programme that scales, earns organisational trust, and keeps pace with a shifting regulatory landscape. You are comfortable in a room with senior stakeholders, confident presenting risk data to the board, and able to push back constructively when a high-risk vendor is being fast-tracked without proper scrutiny.

You will be part of the CISO Office at Eneco, working within a security organisation that sits at the intersection of a major energy transition and a rapidly evolving regulatory environment. Your stakeholders span Procurement, Legal, Compliance, Enterprise Risk, Data Privacy, IT, and the wider business - giving you broad organisational reach from day one. Eneco operates critical infrastructure and is directly in scope for NIS2 and DORA. That gives the TPRM programme real weight - and gives you a genuine mandate to drive change. We work hybrid, combining focused days from home with collaboration at Eneco's Rotterdam HQ.
