About The Position

Cyber74, a New Charter Technologies operating company, is seeking a Compliance Team Lead to help scale and strengthen our growing compliance practice. This is a hands-on, client-facing role — approximately 70% of your time will be spent personally delivering compliance work directly with clients, with the remaining 30% focused on team leadership and practice development. You are a practitioner first and a leader second. The core of this role is helping Cyber74 build and mature our SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS service delivery — developing the internal frameworks, methodologies, and client-facing playbooks that will define how we deliver compliance as a practice. You will also mentor junior team members and contribute to the evolution of our service offerings, all while maintaining direct ownership of client engagements.

Requirements

3–5+ years of hands-on experience personally executing engagements across SOC 2 (Type I & II), ISO 27001, and/or PCI DSS — not just program oversight
Demonstrated ability to independently run a compliance engagement end-to-end: scoping, gap analysis, control mapping, evidence collection, and audit preparation
Proven ability to write information security policies, risk assessments, and audit evidence packages from scratch

Nice To Haves

Experience in a managed services or consulting environment strongly preferred
Familiarity with GRC platforms, particularly IntelliGRC (Cyber74's platform of record); experience with Drata, Vanta, Tugboat Logic, or similar tools also valued
Exposure to HIPAA, NIST CSF, or CMMC is a bonus
Relevant certifications are a plus: CISA, CRISC, CISSP, CISM, or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor/Implementer
Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple concurrent client engagements independently
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present technical topics to non-technical stakeholders and executives
A practitioner at heart — energized by doing the work, not just managing it
Proven ability to build from scratch: frameworks, processes, and templates in environments where they don't yet exist
Detail-oriented and process-driven, with a strong commitment to quality and consistency across every client deliverable
Self-motivated and comfortable working independently in a remote or hybrid environment
Collaborative and adaptable, able to work across teams and adjust to evolving client needs
Growth mindset with an interest in developing new compliance capabilities over time
Comfortable engaging at the executive level and translating compliance requirements into clear business language

Responsibilities

Personally lead and execute compliance engagements for clients — this is a doing role, not just a directing role
Serve as the primary hands-on point of contact for client compliance work, managing engagement delivery from kickoff through audit readiness
Conduct gap analyses, readiness assessments, and risk reviews directly with clients, identifying control deficiencies and building actionable remediation roadmaps
Develop, write, and maintain client-facing policies, procedures, and control documentation — producing real deliverables, not just reviewing others' work
Help build and continuously refine Cyber74's internal compliance frameworks, service delivery methodology, templates, and playbooks from the ground up
Mentor and guide junior compliance staff, reviewing their work and supporting their development without offloading core client responsibilities
Collaborate with internal security engineers and vCISO team members to deliver integrated security and compliance solutions
Track regulatory and framework updates to keep client programs current and audit-ready
Support business development by contributing to proposals, scoping conversations, and client presentations based on direct subject matter expertise
