Job Title: Senior Compliance Analyst

Locations: Abuja (FCT) and Lagos
Employment Type: Full-time
Work Location: Remote

Job Description

• We’re looking for a Senior Compliance Analyst to lead external audits and raise the consistency and quality of how our organization responds to auditors.
• This role is built for someone who can take control language, interpret what it actually requires, and translate it into clear, actionable guidance for technical and business stakeholders.
• You’ll be the person who makes sure we show up to audit walkthroughs prepared, with the right control owners, the right evidence, and the right story.

What you’ll do:

• You’ll own and run the audit lifecycle for key compliance programs, with primary focus onSOC 2, ISO, and C5.

Audit leadership and execution:

• Lead external audits end to end, including readiness planning, control walkthroughs, evidence review, and auditor management.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for third-party auditors, ensuring smooth communication, tight timelines, and clean deliverables.
• Drive audit prep meetings with control owners ahead of walkthroughs so stakeholders know what’s being tested, what “good evidence” looks like, and what not to submit.

Control interpretation and evidence quality:

• Translate control requirements into practical implementation expectations across technical environments, policies, and processes.
• Review and validate evidence before submission to prevent rework, misinterpretation, and “last year’s evidence” recycling when requirements or expectations have changed.
• Help stakeholders understand the difference between “having documentation” and “showing operation,” especially for controls that require testing, monitoring, or recurring execution.

Stakeholder coordination:

• Identify and confirm the correct control owners for each requirement, and ensure the right people are on audit calls.
• Provide clear guidance to SMEs so they can confidently speak to how controls operate in real systems.
• Build repeatable workflows and templates that reduce confusion and make audit participation easier for busy teams.

Program maturity and mentoring:

• Mentor and uplift less experienced team members, improving how control mapping, evidence management, and walkthrough prep is handled.
• Support the move toward structured tracking and continuous monitoring using RSA Archer by helping define evidence expectations, ownership, and operating cadence.
• Partner with internal teams to ensure audit tracking is complete, current, and accessible (status, ownership, artifacts, and auditor Q&A).

What success looks like:

• Walkthroughs are clean, confident, and efficient because stakeholders are prepared and evidence is already validated.
• Audit requests don’t turn into scramble drills because control ownership and evidence expectations are clear upfront.
• We reduce audit churn by submitting evidence that matches the control intent the first time.
• The audit program becomes more scalable through better structure, documentation, and mentorship.

What you bring
Experience and skills:

• Education:Bachelor’s degree in a business, technical, or security-related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 4+ years of experience in compliance, audit, security, or risk, with meaningful ownership of audit execution.
• Hands-on experience leading or heavily supporting audits such asSOC 2 and ISO, and familiarity withC5(direct experience preferred).
• Strong ability to interpret control language and translate it into implementation and evidence requirements that technical teams can execute against.
• Comfort operating in cloud-based environments and understanding the building blocks auditors ask about (identity, logging, configuration management, change control, access reviews, monitoring).
• Confidence facilitating walkthroughs and guiding discussions with auditors and SMEs in a practical, non-theoretical way.
• Strong written and verbal communication, with a track record of working across teams and handling competing priorities.

Preferred:

• Experience in or exposure to IRAP and/or GDPR (helpful, but not the core focus of this role).
• Familiarity with GRC tooling such asRSA Archer(or similar platforms) and building repeatable evidence workflows.
• Security or audit certifications such asCISA, CISM, CISSP, or similar.

License/Certification:

• CISA or CISM or any other Security/Compliance Certification? (Preferred).
