PCI Compliance Specialist

About the Role

We are seeking a detail-oriented and operationally disciplined PCI Compliance Specialist to serve as the execution backbone of a two-person compliance team within Conduent's PCI DSS Compliance Tower. Working in close partnership with a PCI Internal Security Assessor (ISA), you will be the day-to-day operational owner of compliance activities for 2-3 assigned business units - managing evidence collection, control monitoring, artifact readiness, and compliance tracking across every stage of the annual PCI-DSS governance cycle. 

This role is purpose-built for a practitioner who thrives in structured, detail-intensive environments and takes personal pride in the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of compliance records. You will be the organized engine that keeps the team's assigned scopes audit-ready year-round, freeing the ISA to focus on assessor relationships, risk advisory, and stakeholder engagement.

• Prepare and maintain structured evidence binders and audit response packages for each control domain, ensuring all artifacts are labeled, indexed, and traceable to specific PCI-DSS v4.0 requirements. 

• Track all QSA Requests for Information (RFIs) in the team's audit management system, coordinating timely responses from control owners and flagging items at risk of missing SLA to the ISA.

• Maintain the risk acceptance register for assigned scopes, tracking open risk acceptances, expiry dates, residual risk ratings, and required annual reviews. 

• Track compensating controls for assigned scopes, ensuring each has documented rationale, compensating measures, and a current review date on file. 

• Monitor policy and procedure currency for assigned scopes, flagging documents approaching their review date and coordinating with the ISA and policy owners to initiate updates. 

• Maintain the third-party service provider compliance tracking log for assigned scopes, following up annually on AOC renewals and flagging expired certifications to the ISA. 

Compliance Training & Awareness Coordination 

• Coordinate annual PCI-DSS awareness training delivery for control owners, IT staff, and business operations personnel within assigned scopes - tracking enrollment, completion rates, and issuing completion certificates. 

• Develop and maintain training attendance records and completion reports for all assigned scopes to support audit evidence requirements. 

• Assist the ISA in preparing control owner briefing materials, interview guides, and evidence submission instructions ahead of assessment windows.
