• Align practices with standards such as NIST, CMMC, SOC 2, and ISO/IEC 27001
• Monitor and report on evolving regulations
• Maintain security certifications and coordinate audits
• Develop and review policies and cybersecurity plans
• Advise on security for government proposals
• Perform risk assessments and maintain compliance records
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement security controls
• Promote knowledge sharing and best practices across the organization

What you'll bring

• Bachelor's degree in relevant field
• 10+ years of GRC experience in regulated industries
• Proven policy development and compliance expertise
• Strong organizational and communication skills
• Experience leading audits and assurance activities
• Ability to interpret complex risks and develop pragmatic solutions
