Your New Role

As a Regulatory Analyst / GRC Consultant, you will act as a trusted advisor on regulatory and governance matters, providing expert guidance on how regulatory frameworks impact business operations, technology initiatives and strategic decisions.

Interpreting regulatory requirements and translating them into practical business recommendations.
Identifying gaps between current practices and regulatory expectations.
Advising senior stakeholders on compliance risks, obligations and best practice.
Supporting a fast-paced environment where regulatory priorities can change quickly.

What You'll Need to Succeed
To be successful in this role, you will have:
Strong experience within Regulatory Compliance, Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC), Controls or Advisory environments.
Proven experience interpreting complex regulatory or control frameworks and advising stakeholders accordingly.
Knowledge of TSA (Telecoms Security Act) is highly desirable.
Experience working with frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOX, NIST or similar governance and compliance standards.
Excellent analytical and impact assessment skills.
The ability to translate technical or regulatory requirements into clear business outcomes.
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
A consultative mindset with the confidence to challenge, advise and influence.
Previous consultancy or advisory experience would be advantageous.

What You'll Get in Return
Competitive day rate of 590.
Hybrid working model with approximately two days on-site per week.
Opportunity to work within a complex regulatory environment on high-profile compliance initiatives.
Exposure to senior stakeholders and strategic decision-making.
A collaborative and fast-moving environment where your expertise will add real value
