WE WANT PEOPLE WHO ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT SECURITY AND COMPLIANCE 

We are seeking a talented and inquisitive Security & Compliance Analyst whose drive for excellence and continuous improvement aligns with our mission to transform the future of elite performance. In this role, you will be a strategic architect of our trust framework, responsible for maturing a security and compliance program that safeguards our enterprise operations and our next-generation cloud platform. You will play a pivotal role in protecting a complex ecosystem that integrates high-value digital video assets, real-time wearable data, and sensitive athlete biometrics.

WHAT YOU’LL DO 

  • Orchestrate Program Maturity: Drive the continuous evolution of the Catapult Sports security and compliance framework, leveraging the ISO 27001 standard to strengthen our global posture across risk management and vendor security workstreams.
  • Lead Assessment & Remediation: Facilitate internal audits and partner with third-party assessors to proactively identify compliance gaps, transforming findings into actionable, high-priority remediation plans.
  • Modernize Governance & Policy: Collaborate with key stakeholders to architect and maintain robust policies and procedures, ensuring our control environment remains resilient and compliant with ISO 27001, GDPR, and HIPAA requirements.
  • Strengthen Ecosystem Trust: Partner with cross-functional teams to mature our Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) program, ensuring that our vendor landscape meets the same rigorous security standards we apply to our own products.
  • Enable Global Growth: Support our commercial and partnership teams by responding to sophisticated security questionnaires, demonstrating Catapult’s commitment to data integrity and building trust with our most elite customers.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

  • BA/BS degree and 3+ Years in Cyber GRC: Proven experience in a Security Analyst, Compliance, or Audit role within a fast-paced SaaS or Cloud-native environment.
  • Deep expertise in ISO 27001 is essential, including demonstrated success in managing an Information Security Management System (ISMS) and leading the full audit lifecycle. This requires a thorough knowledge of mapping technical security controls directly to the ISO 27001 standard.
  • Third-Party Risk Proficiency: Experience in managing vendor security programs, including the ability to analyze SOC 2 reports and security questionnaires to identify and mitigate supply chain risks.
  • Familiarity with cloud security concepts and standards. 
  • Collaborative Problem Solving: The ability to act as a bridge-builder between technical teams (TechOps/Engineering) and business stakeholders, translating complex compliance requirements into clear, actionable tasks.

WHAT YOUR SUCCESS WILL LOOK LIKE

In 6 Months Time…
  • Operational Rhythm: You have seamlessly integrated into our ISO 27001 cycle, ensuring our newly achieved certification is supported by a consistent, documented rhythm of internal audits and control evidence collection.
  • Cross-Functional Trust: You are recognized by the TechOps and Engineering teams as a collaborative partner who provides clear, actionable compliance guidance rather than just "compliance hurdles."
  • Third-Party Confidence: Our Vendor Risk Management process is significantly more mature; you have standardized how we assess new partners, clearing the backlog of security questionnaires and reducing our supply chain risk.
In 12 months time…
  • Managed Maturity: You have moved the security program from "Point-in-Time" compliance to a Continuous Compliance model, utilizing automation to monitor our control environment in real-time.
  • Audit Excellence: Our annual ISO 27001 Surveillance Audit is completed with zero major non-conformities, directly attributed to the robust internal assessment framework you’ve helped restructure.
  • Commercial Enablement: You have optimized the "Security Sales Support" process, drastically reducing the turnaround time for customer security assessments, which has helped the business win and retain elite global clients.
