Location: 100% On-Site in New York, NY or Richmond, VA
Position Type: Hourly, Full Time
Experience Level: Apprentice / Entry Level
Compensation: starts at $20 per hour
About The Role
We’re looking for a highly organized and detail-oriented Compliance Assistant to join our team in an entry-level capacity. This is a hands-on apprenticeship designed to provide real-world training in regulatory compliance, security frameworks (like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA), and internal operations.
This is a highly competitive role within our apprenticeship program, offering a fast-track pathway to becoming a full-time Compliance Analyst or Security Analyst for top-performing candidates.
What You’ll Do
This is a 12-month paid apprenticeship program at $20/hour, with a clear track to a full-time salaried Compliance Coordinator or Analyst role upon successful completion.
We’re upfront about who we are: a fast-paced, high-growth startup where expectations are high and the learning curve is steep. This is a 100% in-person role, and while the official schedule is full-time, success here often requires going beyond the typical 40-hour workweek, especially for those looking to grow quickly into analyst positions.
Not a Fit If
We believe in rewarding hard work with meaningful perks that support your growth, health, and well-being.
