THE POSITION
Van Oord is moving towards a more risk-driven approach to information security awareness. That means less generic communication and more focus on specific behaviours, target groups and real risks. As an intern within our Information Security team, you help shape this next step.

You analyse how current awareness materials perform and explore how communication can influence safer behaviour. You work closely with colleagues from Information Security and Corporate Communications and contribute ideas that are practical, creative and relevant for different audiences across the organization.

YOUR IMPACT
In this internship, you support the development of communication and awareness initiatives focused on information security and insider risk. You

• Review existing e learnings and assess whether they connect to key risks, practical situations and behavioural change
• Update the golden rules for information security and ensure they remain relevant, clear and aligned with current threats and policies
• Develop communication materials such as infographics, Viva Engage posts, micro learning content and awareness campaigns
• Support campaign planning, annual awareness planning, audience segmentation and effectiveness measurement
• Translate risk data and security insights into understandable and engaging communication
  
  
  

By the end of your internship, you will have contributed to meaningful deliverables including a revised awareness approach, updated communication guidelines and a toolkit that supports safer behavior across Van Oord.

You will join the Information Security team in Rotterdam. A team that combines technical expertise with a strong focus on people, behaviour and collaboration. We believe security only works when communication is clear, practical, and human.

At Van Oord, you work in an international environment where colleagues support each other and where your ideas are taken seriously from day one. Whether you are brainstorming a campaign, designing content, or analyzing behavioral insights, you work together with people who want to make a real difference.
