Information Security Compliance Analyst
Salary: Up to £45,000 per annum + Bonus
Swindon/London – Hybrid
Objective:
You will support the Information Security function across PayTech by coordinating and improving compliance activities, helping ensure that security controls remain effective, evidenced, and aligned to regulatory, client, and internal requirements. The role partners with business, technology, audit, and group stakeholders to drive practical compliance outcomes across PCI DSS, DORA, and other regulatory and risk frameworks, internal control assurance, security awareness compliance, and client due diligence activity.
Crucial to this role is helping maintain PayTech's ability to demonstrate that security controls operate in practice, not only on paper, and that identified gaps are tracked, escalated, and supported through to closure. The role also helps improve confidence in PayTech's security posture by supporting internal audit requirements and responding to client security questionnaires and audits in a structured, repeatable way.
Responsible for:
The Compliance Analyst is responsible for supporting the day-to-day operation of PayTech's security compliance activities. This includes maintaining evidence and documentation, assisting with PCI DSS readiness, coordinating responses to internal audit and client assurance requests, owning the security awareness programme and activities, liaising with our learning teams and wider group functions to maintain the content and ensure it’s delivery, and helping track remediation actions across the business. The role works closely with the rest of the PayTech information security team, technology teams, and group functions to ensure that compliance activity leads to measurable risk reduction and operational improvement.
Promote the use of standard frameworks and consistent evidence practices so that PayTech can meet immediate PCI DSS and audit obligations while improving compatibility with wider regulatory, group, and client assurance expectations. This includes maintaining clear records and minutes, repeatable processes, and practical reporting that supports internal governance and external assurance activity.
What you will be doing:
- Support and coordinate PCI DSS compliance activity, including evidence collection, control tracking, action follow-up, and audit readiness reviews.
- Assist with internal audit requirements by gathering evidence, coordinating with control owners, tracking findings, and supporting timely remediation closure.
- Support responses to client security questionnaires, due diligence requests, and client-led audits by coordinating inputs, maintaining standard response packs, and improving consistency of answers.
- Maintain and improve compliance documentation, including policies, procedures, standards, evidence libraries, control descriptions, and meeting records.
- Track security awareness compliance activities, including completion reporting, support for awareness campaigns, policy attestations, and follow-up of non-compliance.
- Conduct scheduled compliance checks and sample reviews to help confirm that required controls and processes are operating as expected.
- Support risk and exception management by ensuring issues are logged, documented accurately, escalated where required, and reviewed through the proper governance forums.
- Work with technology, engineering, operations, legal, compliance, finance, and group teams to provide clear guidance on evidence expectations and policy requirements.
- Produce reporting and dashboards on compliance status, audit actions, awareness completion, and outstanding remediation items.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of compliance processes so that audit and assurance activity becomes more efficient, repeatable, and less dependent on manual chasing.
Key Result Areas:
- PCI DSS and Control Assurance: Help ensure PCI DSS obligations are supported through well-maintained evidence, control tracking, and readiness for formal assessment activity. The role supports the reduction of audit-visible process gaps by improving documentation quality and follow-through on actions.
- Internal Audit Support: Ensure that internal audit requests are handled in a timely, organised, and professional manner, with clear ownership, accurate evidence, and tracked remediation.
- Client Assurance and Trust: Improve PayTech's ability to respond consistently and credibly to client security questionnaires, assurance requests, and audit queries by maintaining reusable information packs and accurate records.
- Security Awareness Compliance: Support the monitoring and improvement of staff compliance with mandatory security training, awareness activities, and policy acknowledgement requirements.
- Policy and Documentation Quality: Maintain clear, current, and usable compliance documentation aligned with PayTech requirements and Edenred group direction.
- Issue Tracking and Closure: Help ensure audit actions, compliance gaps, and exceptions are visible, correctly recorded, and driven to closure within agreed timescales.
- Regulatory Landscape and Best Practice: Maintain awareness of relevant standards and obligations affecting the role, including PCI DSS, audit expectations, and broader control assurance good practice, and apply these appropriately in daily work.
Measuring Success:
Perform against agreed metrics detailed in objectives such as:
- PCI evidence readiness: percentage of key PCI evidence items current, complete, and available for review at agreed checkpoints.
- Audit action closure rate: percentage of internal and external audit actions closed within agreed target dates.
- Questionnaire turnaround time: average time to coordinate and complete client security questionnaire responses.
- Response quality and reuse: percentage of client assurance responses delivered using approved standard content packs, reducing inconsistency and rework.
- Awareness compliance rate: percentage of staff completing mandatory security awareness training and attestations within target timescales.
- Policy review completion: percentage of in-scope compliance documents reviewed and updated to schedule.
