Reports to: VP of Security, IT and Compliance
We're looking for someone to own compliance end-to-end at Fresha. We're already HIPAA and ISO27001 certified, we're heading into a PCI DSS audit shortly, and later this year we've got GDPR and SOC 2 Type II coming up. That's a lot of parallel work, and we need someone who can run it without constant hand-holding.
Today one person covers the day-to-day compliance operations. You'll take over that function, grow it, and broaden its scope into data protection, vendor risk, and policy. You won't be starting from scratch — there's a working Sprinto setup, an access review cadence, and a vulnerability management process — but you'll be expected to take it to the next level.
We expect the person in this role to run a modern, automated compliance function. The volume of work across five frameworks does not scale with headcount alone — it scales with good tooling, good automation, and sensible use of AI.
To foster a collaborative environment that thrives on face-to-face interactions and teamwork, this role will be based in our dog-friendly office 5 days per week in London: The Bower, 207-122, Old Street, London EC1V 9NR.
You'll have one direct report from day one, and the remainder to grow the function as the workload justifies. You'll work closely with Security, IT, Legal, Engineering and People.
Expect to spend real time with auditors during audit windows and real time with engineering and vendor teams the rest of the year.
At Fresha, we are creating a culture where individuals of all backgrounds feel comfortable.
We want all Fresha people to feel included and truly empowered to contribute fully to our vision and goals. Everyone who applies will receive fair consideration for employment.
We do not discriminate based on race, colour, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, gender identity, national origin, disability, or any other applicable legally protected characteristics in the location in which the candidate is applying.
