I’m recruiting for a Head of Governance, Risk & Compliance with a specialist software provider to the insurance industry.
This is a broad senior role spanning GRC, regulatory compliance, internal audit, Quality Assurance, risk, SDLC governance and AI governance
, with a key focus on ensuring software development and releases remain aligned with evolving regulation
.
My client already has an established governance environment, including ISO 27001, PCI-DSS and Cyber Essentials Plus
, so this is about strengthening and evolving what's already in place rather than starting from scratch.
I’m looking for someone with:
- Strong GRC/Compliance experience
- Exposure to technology/software and ideally insurance
- An understanding of application development and SDLC
- The ability to interpret regulation and turn it into practical controls
- Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills
- Experience across risk, controls and internal audit
- Knowledge of areas such as DORA, NIS2 and CRA would be valuable, but direct DORA experience isn’t essential
.
The sweet spot is someone whose background is weighted towards GRC/Compliance
, but who has sufficient technology knowledge to work confidently with development and technical teams.
