Senior Cyber Risk & Compliance Analyst

Location: Onsite in Mebane, NC, Bradenton, FL, or Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Base Salary Rate: $117,887 - 138,690 per year

Job type: Full-time position

About This Role

The Senior Cyber Risk & Compliance Analyst is a hands-on execution leader responsible for driving cyber risk, compliance, and audit activities to completion across the enterprise. This role requires a self-directed, highly accountable professional who can independently own workstreams, engage confidently with auditors and senior leaders, and translate requirements into completed, defensible outcomes.

This role is ideal for a senior analyst who operates as a trusted problem-solver, not just a coordinator. It is someone who closes gaps, chases evidence, and ensures commitments are delivered without constant direction.

Key Responsibilities

Audit & Assurance Execution (Primary Focus)

• Serve as a day-to-day execution lead for external and internal audits (SOX-equivalent, operational audits, cybersecurity reviews).
• Own audit evidence collection, validation, and submission, ensuring materials are complete, accurate, and audit-defensible.
• Proactively track open audit items, drive follow-ups, and escalate risks early when timelines or control performance is at risk.
• Communicate directly with external auditors and internal stakeholders, providing clear, structured updates and resolving questions efficiently.

Cyber Risk Management & Issue Resolution

• Manage assigned cybersecurity risks end-to-end, including:
• Risk documentation and tracking
• Control gaps and remediation activities
• Owner follow-ups and closure verification
• Actively challenge incomplete or weak responses and push issues to resolution, rather than passively tracking them.
• Contribute to risk reviews related to external exposure, penetration testing results, and security control effectiveness.

Operational Governance & Deliverables

• Independently own governance deliverables such as:
• Control evidence packages
• Risk summaries and issue trackers
• Status updates for leadership and auditors
• Maintain clear documentation and evidence trails suitable for repeatable audits and regulatory scrutiny.
• Support enterprise initiatives tied to SOX-level controls, audit remediation, and cyber risk transparency.

Cross-Functional Leadership (Without Direct Reports)

• Operate as a lead individual contributor, coordinating across IT, Infrastructure, Security, Finance, and third-party vendors.
• Build credibility with technical and non-technical stakeholders through clarity, follow-through, and consistent delivery.

• Model strong accountability and raise issues early when dependencies or ownership gaps emerge.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Information Technology, Cybersecurity, Risk Management, Accounting, Business, or related discipline (Relevant professional experience may be considered in lieu of a degree)
• 7+ years of experience in cybersecurity risk, IT risk, internal controls, compliance, or audit-adjacent roles.

Preferred Qualifications

• Demonstrated experience directly supporting or leading portions of external audits (not just preparing background materials).
• Proven track record of independently owning workstreams and driving them to completion.

• Proven experience leading organizations through certification across multiple cybersecurity frameworks, including ISO/IEC 27001, CMMC and comparable regulatory or industry standards.
• Experience with GRC tools (Drata)

• Strong understanding of:
• Cybersecurity risk management concepts
• IT controls and control evidence expectations
• Audit workflows and external auditor interaction
• High personal accountability with the ability to manage multiple concurrent deliverables.
• Clear, concise written and verbal communication, especially in audit and leadership contexts.
• Comfortable pushing back, probing gaps, and escalating when needed.

• Self-starter who requires minimal hand-holding.
• Execution-focused: prioritizes closure over coordination.
• Detail-oriented without losing sight of deadlines and outcomes.

• Exposure to SOX-level environments.
• Prior experience working in fast-paced, global organizations with distributed stakeholders.
• Holder of certifications (e.g., CISA, CRISC, CISM, CISSP, CIA, Security+, etc.)
