In short
A Public Affairs & Regulatory Specialist helps technology companies operate confidently in regulated markets. Remote Pro Ai deploys vetted specialists, at Senior and Lead level only, within 4 working days. They monitor regulation such as the EU AI Act, the Digital Markets Act and PDPL, prepare position papers and consultation responses, build regulator relationships, and manage licences and permits.
Your Regulatory Affairs Specialist monitors policy and regulation (AI Act, DMA, PDPL, sector rules), and prepares position papers and consultation responses. Typical toolset: Regulatory trackers, stakeholder mapping and MS Office.
Why teams are hiring this role now
Technology regulation is accelerating on both sides: EU AI Act obligations phase in through 2026 and 2027, while Gulf regulators issue new data, AI and sector rules frequently. Companies that learn about a rule at enforcement face delays and penalties. A regulatory specialist turns policy change into early, practical product and commercial decisions.

Regulatory Affairs 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 Regulatory Affairs 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: Senior from USD 5,850/month · Lead from USD 7,600/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 Senior and Lead only. 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.
No. Specialists work alongside counsel: they monitor policy, interpret practical impact for product and commercial teams, manage regulator engagement and prepare submissions. Legal opinions and formal advice stay with qualified lawyers. Together you get earlier warning and clearer action plans.
Coverage depends on your sector and markets. In Europe, common areas are the EU AI Act, Digital Markets Act, GDPR, NIS2 and DORA. In Saudi Arabia they include PDPL, NCA ECC-2:2024 and sector licensing, and in the UAE federal and free-zone rules. Specialists are matched to your priority jurisdictions.
Through formal channels: consultation responses, industry associations, sandbox applications, scheduled meetings and transparent briefings. They prepare clear, evidence-based materials and follow up consistently. Relationships are built in your company’s name and remain yours after the engagement ends. Every interaction is logged, so leadership knows what was said and committed.
Public affairs requires credibility with officials, judgement on sensitive issues and regulatory knowledge built over years, so we place this role at Senior and Lead level only. Every specialist has represented organisations before government bodies or regulators in at least one of your target markets.
