About the Role:
The Team Lead – Cybersecurity Compliance, GRC
& VAPT Audit Management will serve as the primary owner of Globals'
external -facing cybersecurity audit and compliance practice. This is a
leadership role with dual accountability: managing and mentoring a VAPT -capable
audit team, and owning the end -to -end delivery of Information Security audits,
GRC engagements, and regulatory compliance assessments for clients spanning
enterprise IT, BFSI, defence supply chain, and critical information
infrastructure sectors.
The role requires deep fluency in Indian
regulatory frameworks — including the IT Act 2000, CERT -In Directions, and
NCIIPC guidelines — alongside hands -on proficiency in ISO/IEC 27001 audit
execution. The ideal candidate is not expected to personally conduct VAPT
assessments but must be capable of interpreting VAPT findings, translating them
into boardroom -ready compliance reports, and directing the technical team's
audit workflow with authority.
Responsibilities:
A. ISO 27001 Audit Leadership
- Plan, manage, and close
end -to -end ISO/IEC 27001 external and internal audit engagements — covering
scope definition, Statement of Applicability (SoA) review, control testing,
evidence evaluation, and audit report preparation.
- Conduct gap assessments, risk
treatment plan reviews, and readiness evaluations aligned to ISO/IEC 27001:2022
Annex A controls.
- Lead Stage 1 (Documentation
Review) and Stage 2 (Implementation Audit) activities, coordinating with client
stakeholders and certification bodies.
- Prepare and issue
Non -Conformance Reports (NCRs), Observations, and Corrective Action Plans
(CAPAs) with clear remediation guidance.
- Maintain audit programme
documentation including audit plans, checklists, working papers, and formal
audit reports to professional CB -grade standards.
B. GRC – Governance, Risk & Compliance
Engagements
- Lead IT Security Posture
Assessments (ISPA) and risk -based control evaluations for enterprise clients,
producing structured GRC reports with risk registers and treatment roadmaps.
- Design and implement GRC
control frameworks tailored to client operating environments — covering policy
governance, asset management, access control, incident management, and vendor
risk.
- Coordinate compliance gap
analyses against multiple frameworks simultaneously — ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR,
HIPAA, and sector -specific mandates — and produce consolidated compliance
dashboards.
- Manage compliance automation
tool workflows (Sprinto, Drata, Vanta, OneTrust, or equivalent) to track
evidence collection, control status, and audit readiness.
C. CERT -In & Regulatory Reporting
(India -Specific)
- Own the end -to -end process for
CERT -In incident reporting for clients under the CERT -In Directions 2022 —
including 6 -hour and 24 -hour mandatory reporting workflows, log retention
compliance, and NTP synchronisation advisory.
- Prepare and submit structured
incident reports, vulnerability disclosures, and advisory responses to CERT -In
on behalf of clients as authorised representative.
- Advise clients on NCIIPC
compliance obligations under the National Cyber Security Policy for operators
of Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) — including sector -specific
security guidelines for Power, Telecom, Finance, and Government.
- Conduct compliance readiness
reviews against the IT Act 2000, IT (Amendment) Act 2008, and associated Rules
including the IT (Reasonable Security Practices and Procedures and Sensitive
Personal Data or Information) Rules 2011.
- Support DPDP Act 2023 (Digital
Personal Data Protection Act) compliance advisory as it pertains to client data
handling and security obligations.
- Liaise with regulatory bodies
including CERT -In, NCIIPC, MEITY, RBI CISO advisories, and SEBI cybersecurity
circulars where applicable.
D. VAPT Team Management & Report
Oversight
- Lead and manage a team of VAPT
engineers and security analysts — assigning engagements, reviewing scope
documents, and ensuring delivery quality and timeliness.
- Review and validate VAPT
reports (Network PT, Web App PT, API Security Testing, Thick Client, Wireless,
and Cloud Security Reviews) for technical accuracy, risk rating calibration
(CVSS), and narrative clarity before client submission.
- Translate complex technical
VAPT findings into executive -level security risk summaries suitable for client
CISOs, Boards, and Audit Committees.
- Define and enforce
engagement -specific Rules of Engagement (RoE), scoping documents, and test
plans in coordination with the client and technical team.
- Drive remediation verification
cycles — scheduling re -testing post -fix and issuing closure certificates with
updated report revisions.
- Maintain quality assurance over
deliverables — ensuring OWASP, PTES, OSSTMM, and NIST SP 800 -115 methodology
alignment where applicable.
E. Client & Stakeholder Management
- Act as the primary
client -facing point of contact for all cybersecurity audit and compliance
engagements — managing expectations, presenting findings, and driving closure.
- Conduct executive debrief
sessions, boardroom presentations, and risk workshops with client leadership
including CISOs, CTOs, Compliance Officers, and Legal teams.
- Manage multi -client engagement
calendars, coordinating internal VAPT team bandwidth with client timelines and
regulatory deadlines.
- Build long -term client
relationships, identifying opportunities to expand compliance and security
advisory scope.
