Cybersecurity Compliance Analyst

The Enterprise Cyber GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) team functions as a second line of defense, supporting the development and maintenance of Enterprise Technology (ET) risk management and compliance activities. This Analyst role supports the Cyber GRC Compliance & Certification Service Manager in executing day-to-day compliance, certification, and risk management activities across global and regional (EU/Germany) frameworks, including ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST CSF, GDPR, and other automotive-industry-specific standards.

This is a hands-on execution role, ideal for someone building foundational GRC expertise while contributing to certification lifecycle management, evidence collection, control monitoring, and regulatory reporting support. Support the Service Manager in maintaining relationships with OGC, the application teams and other across the shared services teams, by preparing documentation, tracking action items, and coordinating meeting logistics.  Coordinate responses to compliance inquiries using GRC tooling, working with SMEs to obtain accurate and complete information in advance of compliance due dates.  Assist in the collection, organization, and validation of evidence artifacts, metrics, and control documentation required for the maintenance of cyber certification and regulatory compliance.

Facilitate detailed risk assessments as part of the risk management program, using GRC software and statistical methods to quantitify risk at the IT asset level. Help monitor information security controls on an ongoing basis and flag deviations, gaps, or emerging risks to the Service Manager for escalation to the global GRC team. Coordinate the bi-annual maturity assessment process for selected applications by gathering data, coordinating stakeholder input, and drafting supporting documentation.

Contribute to the preparation of annual reports and governance materials, including drafting content and compiling data for C-level presentations. Assist in disseminating GRC training materials and coordinating regional awareness sessions, including scheduling, content adaptation, and tracking participation. Maintain and update trackers/logs of newly identified IT risks and compliance gaps, ensuring accurate documentation before escalation to the global GRC team.

Support certification lifecycle activities (e.g., audit scheduling, evidence readiness checks, tracking remediation actions) for relevant frameworks. Conduct research on regional regulatory requirements and summarize findings to support the Service Manager's representation of regional needs within the global team. Assist with ad hoc reporting, data analysis, and documentation requests from internal stakeholders, auditors, or the global GRC team.

Assist in preparing and updating of procedural documentation around compliance inquiry management and evidence collection processes. Bachelor's degree in IT, Cybersecurity, or a relevant business discipline. 2–4 years of relevant IT, security, or compliance experience. Exposure to security frameworks such as NIST CSF or ISO 27001 preferred. Experience supporting audits, assessments, or compliance projects is a plus.
