Risk Compliance Analyst Jobs in Utah

ABOUT THIS POSITION

The Compliance Analyst plays a key role in supporting and advancing the organization’s audit, compliance, and security assurance activities. This is not a purely task-driven role; it is best suited for a motivated, customer-focused professional who takes ownership, uses sound judgment, knows when to escalate, and looks for opportunities to improve how work gets done. The ideal candidate will help ensure critical compliance activities are completed with quality and timeliness while also identifying ways to streamline processes, improve documentation, and increase operational efficiency over time.

• Own and execute recurring audit and compliance activities, ensuring deliverables are complete, accurate, timely, and well-documented.
• Manage the quarterly collection of common audit evidence and documentation, while identifying opportunities to streamline, standardize, and automate the process.
• Support security questionnaires, customer assurance requests, and RFP responses by coordinating with internal stakeholders and helping drive timely, high-quality responses.
• Coordinate quarterly access reviews and other control validation activities, ensuring issues, delays, and exceptions are appropriately tracked and escalated.
• Review change management and related compliance activities for completeness, control effectiveness, and opportunities for process improvement.
• Track remediation of vulnerabilities and other control gaps against established service levels, helping drive accountability and visibility to open risks.
• Maintain and improve a reusable knowledge base of approved security and compliance response content to support efficiency and consistency.
• Exercise sound judgment to determine when issues can be resolved independently versus when they should be escalated to leadership or subject matter experts.
• Partner effectively with Security, Technology Operations, Application Engineering, and other internal teams to support compliance objectives and customer needs.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by incorporating lessons learned, identifying recurring pain points, and recommending practical changes that improve team effectiveness.

Preferred Experience

• Experience in compliance, audit support, security operations, vendor risk, third-party risk management, or a related role.
• Exposure to or working knowledge of security and compliance frameworks such as NIST, HITRUST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI, or similar standards.

Education and Certifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Information Security, Information Systems, Computer Science, Risk Management, Supply Chain, Business, or a related field is preferred.
• Equivalent relevant work experience may be considered in place of a degree.
• Relevant certifications such as Security+, ISO 27001, HITRUST, CISA, CRISC, or similar are a plus, but not required.
• Experience working in a technology-driven environment where responsiveness, collaboration, and customer support are important.
• Ability to manage recurring operational work while also improving process maturity, documentation quality, and team efficiency.
• Comfort working across both technical and non-technical teams to gather information, resolve issues, and move work to completion.
