Security Jobs: Director of Security (International Compliance)

In the past I’ve been asked why most of the jobs on SecurityRecruiter.com’s Security Job page are information security jobs or cyber security jobs. The answer is simple. Supply and Demand!

We'd like to have more high-level physical security jobs, corporate security jobs, risk management jobs and compliance jobs.  When our phones ring and a company in need is on the other end, more often than not, they've been challenged to find highly specialized information security talent.  We're working to get all kinds of security jobs to share with you but we have to go where supply and demand takes us.

Today I’ll be writing up a new search that is part information security, part physical security but mostly international regulatory compliance, security policies and security procedures. The role reports to the Chief Compliance Officer of a $650M company and comes in at the Director level.

 

This role is not purely IT Security or purely physical security. It contains elements of both but is primarily a role to align a global company’s risk management, security policies and security procedures with the various compliance regulations that exist across the globe.

This role, like many roles we’re fortunate to work on at SecurityRecruiter.com is a newly created position required as a result of different compliance regulations being created in different parts of the world.

Companies that operate in different countries have complex rules and regulations to understand. Understanding regulations is not enough though. 

This Director of Security will be responsible for building policies and procedures and also for building a training delivery mechanism to ensure that employees of this company around the globe understand how to operate in their unique host nations.
