kloeckner.i GmbH • Other • Düsseldorf, Berlin • 3d ago

Klöckner & Co is one of the world's largest producer-independent steel and metal distributors and one of the leading steel service companies. Klöckner & Co serves over 90,000 customers through its distribution and service network with around 160 locations in 13 countries. By expanding its portfolio of CO2-reduced materials, services and logistics under the new umbrella brand Nexigen®, the company is underscoring its role as a pioneer of a sustainable steel industry. At the same time, as a pioneer of digital transformation in the steel industry, Klöckner & Co has set itself the goal of digitizing and largely automating its supply and service chain. In this way, the company aims to become the leading one-stop store for steel, other materials, equipment and processing services in Europe and America. In our Digital Hub kloeckner.i GmbH, we are bundling all projects geared to this under one roof. With currently 150 employees, we work hybrid at the Berlin and Duisburg sites.

Kloeckner has one Global Security team to help bring Kloeckner to the next level while keeping them secure. This position will be working with team members and security experts from all over the world to build one robust security framework for Kloeckner. The SOC Manager will serve as the primary point of contact between the organization and its Managed Security Services Provider (MSSP), overseeing the consumption and delivery of Security Operations Center (SOC) and Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) services. The SOC Manager ensures that cybersecurity incidents are handled effectively, reports on SOC operations, and collaborates with internal stakeholders to maintain a strong security posture. This role is critical in managing the relationship with the MSSP to ensure compliance, timely incident responses, and service level performance that aligns with business objectives. This is a strategic role that does not involve direct management of an internal SOC team but requires oversight and governance of the MSSP-provided SOC services. This role is a maternity leave replacement and limited for 1 year.
