  • Conduct compliance audits and gap analyses to identify and address areas of non-compliance, ensuring timely remediation.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Foster a culture of compliance by promoting integrity, accountability, and transparency across all levels of the organization.

Continuous Improvement & Monitoring

• Stay updated on emerging compliance trends, regulatory requirements, and enforcement actions to ensure GetYourGuide remains ahead of changes in the compliance landscape.
• Continuously monitor the effectiveness of compliance processes and controls, making recommendations for optimization and improvement where needed.
• Leverage technology and tools, including AI-driven solutions, to automate and optimize compliance monitoring, reporting, and risk mitigation processes.

Compliance Reporting

• Deliver regular and ad-hoc compliance reports to Head of GRC and Senior Leadership, highlighting compliance risks, trends, and mitigation strategies.
• Provide actionable insights and recommendations to strengthen the organization’s compliance posture.

Your toolkit:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Compliance, Law, Business Management, or a related field.

• Practical experience in managing compliance policies, manuals, and third-party compliance programs.
• Excellent analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.
