Security Compliance & Implementation Consultant

**Duration:** 6-Month Contract

Position Overview

We are seeking a hands-on Security Compliance & Implementation Consultant to lead and execute cybersecurity, governance, and compliance initiatives across a growing enterprise environment.

This is an implementation-focused role, not a monitoring or operations position. The ideal candidate will have experience translating compliance requirements into technical controls, configuring security platforms, developing governance processes, and driving remediation efforts from assessment through completion.

The organization has already completed compliance assessments and identified security gaps, remediation plans, and compliance objectives. This consultant will be responsible for implementing the necessary controls, policies, and processes to strengthen the company's overall security posture and support ongoing compliance initiatives.

The successful candidate will work closely with executive leadership, IT teams, and business stakeholders while supporting initiatives related to ITAR, NIST, data protection, cloud security, governance, and future compliance readiness programs.

Key Responsibilities

Security Compliance & Governance

* Review security gaps, compliance findings, and remediation plans identified through GRC and compliance management platforms.

* Identity & Access Management (IAM)
* Privileged Access Management (PAM)
* Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
* Endpoint Protection Platforms

* Perform security configuration reviews and recommend risk-reduction improvements.
* Partner with IT teams to remediate vulnerabilities and close compliance gaps.
* Implement security best practices related to access control, encryption, asset management, logging, monitoring, and data protection.

Cloud & Microsoft Security

* Support and enhance security initiatives across Azure and Microsoft 365 environments.
* Configure and manage:

* Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD)
* Microsoft Defender Suite
* Microsoft Purview
* Conditional Access
* Microsoft Intune
* Microsoft Security Center
* Assess cloud security posture and implement improvements.
* Support secure architecture and cloud governance initiatives.

Stakeholder Engagement & Project Leadership

* Partner with leadership teams to prioritize security initiatives and remediation efforts.
* Provide regular project updates and compliance status reporting.
* Lead workshops, security reviews, and stakeholder meetings.
* Drive projects from assessment through implementation and validation.
* Manage multiple security and compliance initiatives simultaneously.

Required Qualifications

* 5+ years of experience in Cybersecurity, Information Security, Security Engineering, Security Compliance, or Security Consulting.
* Proven experience implementing security controls and security technologies in enterprise environments.

* Excellent communication, presentation, and stakeholder management skills.

Preferred Qualifications

* Experience with compliance management platforms such as Tenacy, Drata, Vanta, Secureframe, Hyperproof, or AuditBoard.
* Experience supporting CMMC readiness initiatives.
* Knowledge of export-controlled environments and ITAR compliance requirements.
* Familiarity with vulnerability management, security operations, and incident response practices.
* Previous consulting or advisory experience.

Preferred Certifications

* CISSP
* CISM
* CISA
* CRISC
* CompTIA Security+
* Microsoft Security Certifications
* Microsoft Azure Security Engineer Associate
* Certified CMMC Professional (CCP)
* ISO 27001 Lead Implementer or Lead Auditor

What We're Looking For

We are seeking a proactive, hands-on security professional who enjoys building, implementing, and improving security programs. The ideal candidate can review a compliance roadmap, identify required outcomes, and independently implement the technical controls, governance processes, and documentation necessary to achieve compliance objectives.

This individual should be equally comfortable working with executive leadership, configuring security technologies within Microsoft environments, developing governance documentation, and driving remediation efforts across technical teams.
