GRC analyst needed to support compliance documentation for financial services clients

We are a boutique data security & compliance firm supporting financial services businesses. We need a detail-oriented GRC analyst to support operations. e.g. reviewing client-submitted data, maintaining compliance records, and keeping documentation audit-ready — all against defined checklists. What you'll do: - Review client onboarding questionnaires against a set checklist — confirm every required field is complete, flag inconsistencies, verify nothing contradicts earlier notes. - Sort issues into two lanes: small gaps you fix directly with the client, or real red flags you escalate — never guess which lane something belongs in - Pull data findings from client risk assessment and log them into our documentation system. - Confirm which regulation applies to each client and record it correctly. - Set up and maintain logs of each client's contact records — who to call, who can approve changes, how they want updates. - Track submission deadlines and follow up when clients fall behind. - Contribute to monthly compliance reports — patch status, login security status, backup verification, open items etc. - Maintain the vendor risk register — an annual review list of each client's third-party providers. - Help keep each client's asset inventory (their list of systems) current and accurate. - Support annual cyber insurance paperwork — pulling together renewal documentation You should have: - Strong attention to detail — this role is checklist-driven, not improvisational. - Understanding of GRC (Governance, Risk, Compliance) fundamentals. - Comfortable following a defined escalation process — know when to handle something yourself and when to flag it for review. - Experience with compliance documentation or audit support work. Nice to have: - Familiarity with SEC Reg S-P, FTC Safeguards Rule, or WISP requirements. What you will NOT do: - No technical security work. Don't be overwhelmed, the work is relatively easy and you will always have ongoing support from leadership. Looking at all applications!
