Austin, United States Unreal Gigs Full time
Introduction:

Are you passionate about ensuring that organizations adhere to regulatory requirements and security best practices? Do you have the expertise to assess IT and cybersecurity environments for compliance while keeping teams on the right side of regulatory frameworks? If you're a detail-oriented professional with a knack for navigating complex compliance landscapes, then our client has the perfect opportunity for you. We're seeking a Compliance Analyst (IT/Cybersecurity) (aka The Compliance Navigator) to help us maintain the highest standards of regulatory compliance and security.

Imagine being the person who ensures that every system, process, and team within the organization complies with industry regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS. As the Compliance Analyst at our client, you'll conduct audits, assess risks, and work with cross-functional teams to ensure we're meeting our compliance goals. This role is about more than just ticking boxes-it's about helping the organization navigate a constantly evolving regulatory landscape and minimizing compliance risks.

Key Responsibilities:
  1. Compliance Audits and Assessments:
  • Conduct regular compliance audits and assessments of the organization's IT and cybersecurity environments. You'll ensure that the organization complies with internal policies, industry standards, and regulatory frameworks such as GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001.
Risk Assessment and Mitigation:
  • Perform risk assessments to identify potential compliance gaps and vulnerabilities. You'll provide detailed reports and recommend risk mitigation strategies to address areas of non-compliance and reduce the organization's overall risk exposure.
Policy Development and Enforcement:
  • Work with IT, security, and legal teams to develop and enforce compliance policies, procedures, and guidelines. You'll ensure that policies are regularly updated and aligned with the latest regulatory requirements and industry best practices.
Regulatory Reporting and Documentation:
  • Maintain accurate documentation of compliance activities, including audit findings, risk assessments, and regulatory reporting. You'll prepare detailed reports for management and regulatory authorities, ensuring that all required documentation is accurate and up to date.
Training and Awareness Programs:
  • Develop and deliver training programs to educate employees on compliance requirements, data protection laws, and cybersecurity best practices. You'll help foster a compliance-driven culture across the organization and ensure that everyone understands their role in maintaining compliance.
Vendor and Third-Party Compliance Management:
  • Assess and manage the compliance of third-party vendors and partners, ensuring that they meet the organization's security and regulatory standards. You'll conduct vendor risk assessments and work with procurement teams to ensure that third-party contracts include appropriate compliance clauses.
Collaboration with Legal and IT Teams:
  • Serve as a liaison between legal, IT, and security teams to ensure that compliance requirements are integrated into technical systems and business processes. You'll help ensure that compliance is maintained throughout the organization's digital infrastructure.
Requirements

Required Skills:
  • Compliance Expertise: Strong understanding of IT and cybersecurity compliance frameworks and regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, and NIST. You know how to assess systems for compliance and guide teams through regulatory landscapes.
  • Risk Management Skills: Experience conducting risk assessments, identifying compliance gaps, and developing risk mitigation strategies. You're skilled at quantifying compliance risks and recommending practical solutions.
  • Audit Experience: Hands-on experience conducting internal audits, preparing audit reports, and presenting findings to stakeholders. You're detail-oriented and know how to assess an environment for regulatory compliance.
  • Communication and Training: Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to explain complex compliance requirements to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. You enjoy educating teams and building a compliance-first culture.
  • Regulatory Knowledge: Familiarity with data protection laws, security standards, and IT regulations. You stay up-to-date with regulatory changes and ensure that compliance policies are regularly updated.
  • Analytical and Problem-Solving Skills: Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with the capacity to break down complex compliance issues and develop effective solutions. You're proactive in finding ways to stay compliant and mitigate risks.
  • Humor: A great sense of humor, because even in the world of compliance, we believe in fostering a work environment that is both productive and enjoyable. If you can navigate complex regulatory discussions while keeping the team engaged, you're our kind of analyst.
Educational Requirements:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Risk Management, or a related field. Equivalent experience with a proven track record in IT or cybersecurity compliance is also valued.
  • Certifications such as Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA), Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP), or similar are highly desirable.
Experience Requirements:
  • 3+ years of experience in IT or cybersecurity compliance, with hands-on experience conducting compliance audits and ensuring regulatory adherence in complex IT environments.
  • Proven experience working with industry-specific regulatory frameworks (GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS) and managing compliance in industries such as finance, healthcare, or government.
  • Experience assessing third-party vendors for compliance and managing vendor risk is a plus.
Benefits
  • Health and Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance plans with low co-pays and premiums.
  • Paid Time Off: Competitive vacation, sick leave, and 20 paid holidays per year.
  • Work-Life Balance: Flexible work schedules and telecommuting options.
  • Professional Development: Opportunities for training, certification reimbursement, and career advancement programs.
  • Wellness Programs: Access to wellness programs, including gym memberships, health screenings, and mental health resources.
  • Life and Disability Insurance: Life insurance and short-term/long-term disability coverage.
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Confidential counseling and support services for personal and professional challenges.
