RESPONSIBILITIES

Framework Strategy & Rationalization

• Enable strategic alignment and rationalization across SOC2 Type 2, ISO 27001, NIST SP 800-53, PCI DSS, SOX ITGCs, FedRAMP, and CMMC (and related customer/regulatory requirements) to avoid duplicative effort and an unsustainable annual workload.
• Support transitions between assurance approaches where appropriate (e.g., simplifying overlapping requirements) to meet expectations such as state and sector requirements (including TX-RAMP where applicable).
• Perform control mapping activities; identifying overlaps, gaps, and efficiency opportunities across standards, internal policies, and contractual obligations.

Evidence Management, Customer Assurance, and Regulatory Support

• Preserve consistent, high-quality evidence production for assessments, customer RFIs, and regulatory requirements—reducing execution risk and downstream disruption.
• Build and maintain a well-governed evidence repository with clear traceability, version control, retention, and audit defensibility aligned to enterprise standards.
• Coordinate timely, accurate responses to customer security questionnaires and assurance requests in partnership with control owners.

Operational Risk Management & Issue Lifecycle

• Maintain effective operational risk management coverage, ensure monitoring, documentation, and issue lifecycle management continue without erosion as scope expands.
• Track findings, exceptions, risks, and remediation activities; coordinate validation and closure documentation aligned to governance expectations.
• Support risk reporting and governance cadence (e.g., risk forums, control owner check-ins) with clear status, trends, and escalation points.

Continuity, Capacity, and Compliance Operations Excellence

• Mitigate concentration and continuity risk within compliance/GRC by reducing reliance on a single overextended resource for critical audit and risk functions through documentation, process standardization, and repeatable operating routines.
• Develop scalable compliance artifacts (templates, checklists, playbooks) to improve consistency and reduce rework across cycles.
• Sustain audit readiness and customer confidence during increased compliance demands and post-acquisition integration complexity.

Stakeholder Partnership & Enterprise Governance

• Serve as a primary compliance partner to control owners across Security, Engineering, IT, Legal, and Operations to drive timely evidence production and remediation outcomes.
• Communicate status, risks, and blockers with precision; independently manage stakeholder follow-ups and escalate issues appropriately to protect timelines and quality.
• Promote a strong culture of compliance through clear guidance, practical enablement, and consistent expectations for evidence quality.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s Degree.
• 5 or more years of experience supporting cybersecurity compliance assessments and audits aligned to one or more of the following: SOC Type 2, ISO 27001, NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP, PCI DSS, SOX ITGCs, and CMMC.
• 5 or more years of experience coordinating audit evidence and testing with multiple control-owner teams (e.g. security, Engineering, IT, Product, Finance).

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

• 5 or more years with operating in post-acquisition or high-change environments with complex stakeholder landscapes.
• 5 or more years of experience supporting CMMC readiness and/or working with defense-sector security requirements (e.g. SSP/POA&M development, control implementation tracking).

ADDITIONAL JOB STANDARDS

• Independent execution and ownership mindset; proactive identification and removal of blockers.
• Compliance tooling (GRC platforms, ticketing systems, evidence repositories, workflow automation tools).
• Risk-based prioritization and sound judgment.
• Experience using AI-enabled tools to improve efficiency and quality in compliance workflows (e.g., drafting policies/procedures, summarizing evidence sets, accelerating RFI responses, mapping controls, identifying gaps).
• Ability to apply AI responsibly in accordance with confidentiality, data handling, and audit defensibility requirements.

• Process discipline and attention to detail; strong documentation rigor.
• Stakeholder management and clear, concise communication across multiple organizational levels.
• Should be open to travel up to 15% on occasion to assist with on-site audits if needed. 
• Comfortable working within formal governance, change control, and fixed assessment/audit timelines.

This role is responsible for leading and coordinating cybersecurity compliance assessments and audit readiness activities across multiple regulatory and industry frameworks, including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, NIST 800-53, PCI DSS, SOX ITGC, FedRAMP, and CMMC.

The position ensures the successful execution of external audits and assessments by managing workplans, milestones, dependencies, and stakeholder engagement while maintaining audit-ready documentation, and evidence repositories.

Working closely with control owners and business partners, the role validates control effectiveness, supports assessment preparedness, and drives timely remediation of identified gaps. As a highly independent contributor, this position plays a critical role in helping Labcorp meet compliance obligations, strengthen its security governance posture, and maintain confidence with customers, regulators, and external assessors.
