Partner with assessment leads and client stakeholders to collect information and confirm how controls are designed and operating.
Communicate progress, emerging risks, and key findings during internal status discussions and project checkpoints.
Manage deadlines across concurrent engagements while maintaining consistent quality and attention to detail.
Prepare assessment deliverables for manager review and incorporate feedback to support final quality assurance.
Requirements
At least 5 years of experience in cybersecurity, information security, governance, risk, and compliance, or a closely related field.
Demonstrated success performing HITRUST assessments in client-facing or consulting environments.
Ability to independently review security controls and evaluate the quality of supporting evidence with minimal supervision.
Experience identifying compliance gaps, documenting results, and recommending practical remediation actions.
Strong knowledge of cybersecurity frameworks, control structures, and regulatory assessment practices.
HITRUST certification is required, though candidates with prior certification and substantial hands-on HITRUST assessment experience may also be considered.
Proficiency with Fieldguide or comparable audit, risk, or compliance management tools.
Relevant credentials such as CISSP and familiarity with healthcare or other regulated environments are preferred.
