Compliance and Regulatory Associate

Information Security And Compliance Specialist This is a newly created role, driven by business growth and the expanding scope of our compliance programme. You will work directly alongside our Information Security Lead/DPO and our Regulatory Affairs Specialist, providing hands-on support across both information security and quality/regulatory functions. Your primary focus will be information security and data protection, supporting ISMS operations, supplier assessments, and infosec-related processes, and supporting quality management and regulatory affairs. You will own a real workload from day one, with clear mentorship and room to grow into a specialist role. We welcome applications from people with a variety of backgrounds and experiences. Compliance expertise can be built in many different ways, and we're more interested in how you think, how you work, and what you bring to the team than in whether your CV matches every bullet point. If this role interests you, please apply.
