The role
We are seeking a seasoned Senior Technical Program Manager (Sr TPM) to lead cross-functional, enterprise-wide initiatives across IT, Security, and Governance.
In this pivotal role, you will drive execution of the 2026 Security Tribe plan — spanning Financial & Technical Risk Mitigation, Zero Trust, Compliance Automation, and Operational Resilience — ensuring that HelloFresh maintains a secure, compliant, and scalable technology foundation.
You will collaborate closely with the Security Leadership Team, Finance, Legal, AI Governance, and Engineering Foundations to align programs with business priorities.
A strong interest in applying AI and automation pragmatically — for example to streamline workflows, reporting, or incident response — will enable you to accelerate impact while keeping the focus on measurable domain outcomes.
Above all, we are looking for people who will make HelloFresh better. We believe there are many different ways of developing skills and we love diverse experiences! So even if you don’t “tick all the boxes” but think you’d thrive in this role, we would really like to learn more about you.

- Collaborate with the AI Governance and Data Science teams to safely embed automation in compliance, risk, and monitoring processes.

- Proficiency with platforms such as Jira, Wiz, ZScaler, Entra ID, and GRC systems.
- Awareness of how AI and automation can enhance governance, risk, and operational processes.
