Security Manager

About This Role

This Security Manager role is responsible for ensuring the integrated protection of people, assets, and data through a participatory, multidisciplinary, and value-oriented corporate security model. The role transforms the Security function from a reactive operational oversight to a strategic lever for prevention, resilience, and business continuity, promoting a shared and responsible security culture at all organizational levels.

Responsibilities

• Define and oversee the corporate security model, translating business objectives into operational priorities, homogeneous standards, and coherent implementation plans across the entire network.
• Evolve the function from a reactive to a preventive and structured logic, strengthening anticipation, control, and organizational response capabilities.
• Lead initiatives to reduce inventory losses, internal and external fraud, and organized retail crime, with particular attention to high-vulnerability contexts.
• Develop root cause analyses, structural countermeasures, and risk indicator monitoring systems, measuring the return on investment of control activities.
• Coordinate the handling and management of reports from the network and corporate functions, supervising internal investigations into fraud, anomalies, and non-compliant behaviors.
• Transform audit and verification findings into corrective, preventive, and improvement actions for governance processes.
• Oversee the compliance, reliability, and evolution of physical security systems — video surveillance, intrusion detection, access control — according to a structured lifecycle management model.
• Promote the adoption of advanced technological solutions, including analytics and artificial intelligence tools for predictive and continuous monitoring purposes.
• Coordinate organizational preparedness for critical events and crisis situations, ensuring clear escalation protocols, rapid activation, and operational continuity.
• Ensure the updating and effective application of Business Continuity plans, incident management procedures, and systematic post-event analysis.
• Disseminate a shared security culture, in which every employee actively contributes to risk prevention; coordinate training programs and networks of contacts in retail stores.
• Collaborate with corporate functions — Operations, HR, IT, Legal, Compliance, Technical Directorate — and with external institutions to integrate security into business processes and ensure full regulatory compliance.
• Ensure a constant and periodic presence at the various retail stores nationwide to monitor the effectiveness of security measures, support local teams, and conduct direct operational checks; available for frequent travel.

Requirements

• Strategic vision and execution capability on multi-site networks; project management, root cause analysis, and structured decision-making in complex contexts.
