In short

Remote Pro Ai provides vetted GRC & Compliance Specialists who turn regulatory frameworks into audit-ready controls, evidence and policies. They run NCA ECC, SAMA CSF, PDPL, NESA, ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA and SOC 2 programmes from gap analysis to external audit, and automate evidence collection.

Your GRC Specialist implements NCA ECC, SAMA CSF, PDPL, NESA, ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA and SOC 2 programmes, and builds policy sets, RACI and third-party risk management. Typical stack: Archer, ServiceNow IRM, Drata, Vanta and OneTrust.

Why teams are hiring this role now

Regulation is now the main engine of cybersecurity hiring. NCA ECC-2:2024 and SAMA CSF in Saudi Arabia, NESA in the UAE, and NIS2 and DORA in Europe all demand documented, continuously evidenced controls. Organisations facing audits or inspections need specialists who can turn frameworks into working programmes quickly.

GRC Specialist hiring FAQ

Self-serve bookings receive a shortlist within 48 hours and enterprise requests get named candidates within 72 hours. After you approve a profile and sign, your specialist is working within 4 working days, whether the request is on the bench, off-bench or on-site. When fewer than 5 GRC Specialist profiles are on the bench, we shortlist from the wider vetted network in the same 48 hours.

Pricing is quotation-based and depends on level, hours and any on-site, clearance or data-residency needs. Current bands: Mid from USD 5,120/month · Senior from USD 6,730/month · Lead from USD 8,740/month. VAT is shown separately, quotes can be viewed in SAR, AED, USD or EUR, and every quotation is valid for 30 days. The Squad Builder shows your quote instantly.

Remote Pro Ai is contractually responsible for quality. Raise it at any time: a replacement starts within 4 working days; the full handover completes in under 14 days. Your first engagement also begins with a no-bill trial, one per company: 5 working days on self-serve bookings and 10 on enterprise contracts.

This role is offered at Mid, Senior and Lead level. We never place junior profiles. A practice lead confirms each specialist’s level through a live technical assessment and reference checks, so the band on your quotation reflects scope the person has already delivered rather than a job title on a CV.

NCA ECC-2:2024, SAMA CSF, PDPL, NESA / UAE IA, ISO 27001, NIS2, DORA and SOC 2, plus third-party risk management. Most organisations face several at once, so specialists build one control library mapped to every applicable framework and evidence each control once.

It depends on your starting point. For a typical scope, our Compliance Acceleration Squad (a GRC Lead, 2 GRC Analysts, a Security Engineer and a Pen Tester) delivers audit-ready evidence for NCA ECC, ISO 27001 or NIS2 in 12 weeks. Individual specialists start within 4 working days.

Yes. They configure Drata, Vanta, ServiceNow IRM, Archer or OneTrust to pull evidence from cloud, identity and ticketing systems automatically. Continuous compliance replaces the annual scramble, and auditors receive consistent, timestamped evidence instead of screenshots gathered the week before. Control owners also get dashboards showing what is overdue.

They prepare and lead it: agreeing scope, organising evidence, coaching control owners, attending sessions and tracking findings to closure. Many hold CISA, CISM, CRISC or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor certification, verified before their profile reaches your shortlist. Findings are tracked in your GRC platform until auditors confirm closure.
