Director - Governance, Risk, Compliance & Privacy (GRC)

Who You Are You have built or substantially matured a GRC program before and taken an organization through SOC 2 Type 2. Typically several years (5+) in GRC, IT governance, or security compliance, though what you have built matters more to us than the count. A builder with a bias for action. When you see a manual process, your first instinct is how to automate it. A strong systems thinker. You design scalable GRC architectures, not one-off fixes for the next audit. Fluent with a compliance automation platform (Vanta, Drata, Secureframe, or similar) and current on AI tooling in practice, not just in theory. Comfortable across both security compliance and data privacy, or able to ramp quickly on regimes you have not personally run. An excellent cross-functional communicator who works through influence and can translate compliance

requirements into terms both technical and non-technical teams can act on. A clear writer.

Bonus Points Privacy or audit certifications (CIPP, CIPM, CISA, CISSP, or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor or Implementer). Experience with regimes beyond SOC 2 (ISO 27001, PCI DSS, HIPAA, FedRAMP, StateRAMP) and accessibility conformance (WCAG, VPAT). Enough technical fluency to scope what the program needs and partner closely with engineering, even without building the tooling yourself. Multi-entity, private-equity, or holding-company experience. M&A security and privacy diligence experience. Our Values at Beacon Software Humility : We acknowledge that the path to getting to the right answer involves being wrong along the way.

How We Use AI in Our Hiring Process: To ensure transparency, we want candidates to know that Beacon Software uses Artificial Intelligence and AI-enabled tools to assist with screening, reviewing, organizing and highlighting profiles and applications that match the key

requirements for each role. AI does not make hiring decisions: Every application is reviewed by a member of our team, and all decisions throughout the process are made by humans. We use AI to support efficiency and consistency, not to replace human judgment. We are committed to a fair, thoughtful, and equitable experience for every candidate.
