Heads of Unit DORA Joint Oversight

We have organised the forthcoming CTPP oversight activity as a Joint Oversight Venture to pool our resources in the ESAs and work as one team, headed by a DORA Joint Oversight Director. The aim is to develop an efficient and cross-sectoral approach.

The Units are either directly embedded in the DORA Joint Oversight Directorate (in the ESA where the Joint Oversight Director is based) or in the ESA’s Department/Directorate dealing with DORA (oversight or non-oversight) (in the other two ESAs), in order to have a local hierarchical line. In the latter case, they report functionally to the Joint Oversight Director.

The Heads of Unit will be responsible for organising the oversight activities for the CTPPs under their remit. Each Unit will regroup several Joint Examination Teams (JETs), taking into account the main types of ICT services and the oversight needs. The JETs are the teams of examiners facing each CTPP and assessing their risks. The JETs will comprise team members from the ESAs and Competent Authorities (CAs). Each JET will be led by a staff member of the ESA assigned with the role of “Lead Overseer” of the CTPP.

The ideal candidate will have a robust background in ICT and technology services, as well as an expertise or experience in ICT audit, ICT supervision, ICT risk management and Information Security.
