Once again, BAI Security’s Employee Engagement beat global benchmarks significantly and across-the board!

You must be someone capable of the type of extensive document analysis and procedural scrutiny necessary for compliance auditing, as well as have a grasp of technology concepts and business acumen (e.g. cross-functional knowledge, strategic mindset, tactical application of solutions, diverse stakeholder communication skills, etc.). (Please note: this is not a legal compliance role – this is IT compliance-focused.)

Client audits conducted by this employee will be performed using proprietary methodologies developed by BAI Security, which are based on the appropriate government regulations and guidelines for our clients’ industries. As such, your projects will follow a well-defined and documented procedure from one engagement to another. Positive, professional client interactions throughout compliance audits are key to a strong relationship, so excellent communication skills and a strong orientation towards customer service are paramount.

At the conclusion of your audits, you will be responsible for preparing concise professional documentation detailing your findings. This will require excellent writing and communication skills, as these documents are routinely presented to the highest levels of management within our clients’ organizations. It is vital that you have the writing skills necessary to customize your deliverable documents to reflect the findings in a highly professional and articulate manner.

This position is a great growth opportunity for someone who is highly motivated, takes initiative, is very professional, a fast learner, a solid writer and communicator, and has an exceptional work ethic. Only those persons who can genuinely demonstrate these qualities should apply.
