•    Prepare responses to client security questionnaires and other client inquiries regarding Lockton’s security program, controls, assurance activities, and risk-management practices.
•    Participate in client and prospective-client discussions, presenting security and compliance information clearly while appropriately managing sensitive or restricted information.
•    Partner with Information Security, Information Technology, Legal, Privacy, Risk, and business stakeholders to support projects and communicate compliance impacts and obligations.
•    Contribute to the maintenance and improvement of approved response content, supporting documentation, and reusable materials for client assurance activities.
•    Review security and compliance language in contracts, addenda, and customer requirements when needed; identify concerns and coordinate feedback with Legal and relevant subject-matter experts.
•    Stay current on relevant cybersecurity compliance expectations, audit practices, and industry developments.
 

•    3-5 years of experience in cybersecurity compliance, information security governance, technology risk, IT audit, or a closely related field.
•    Demonstrated experience managing or coordinating audit cycles from planning through final response and remediation tracking.
•    Experience working directly with internal or external auditors, including evidence requests, walkthroughs, follow-up questions, and issue resolution.
•    Experience translating control requirements into clear expectations for technical and business control owners.
•    Experience preparing responses to client security questionnaires, due-diligence requests, or customer assurance inquiries.
•    Working knowledge of security controls, risk concepts, audit evidence, and common cybersecurity compliance frameworks or assurance programs.
•    Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain security and compliance topics to technical, business, client, and audit audiences.
•    Strong organizational and project-management skills, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams, deadlines, dependencies, and stakeholders.
•    Ability to self-direct, prioritize tasks independently, and deliver high-quality results under tight deadlines. 
•    Sound judgment and discretion when handling confidential, sensitive, or restricted information.
•    Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Cybersecurity, Information Technology, Business, Risk Management, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
