What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sales Development Representative position at Compass IT Compliance?
Compass IT Compliance, LLC is a leading Information Technology Audit and Compliance firm. Companies large and small must comply with a confusing mix of regulations and laws such as the PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard), FFIEC, Sarbanes-Oxley, HIPAA / HITECH, Basel II, Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, Patriot Act, Identity Theft Red Flags, SEC requirements and state privacy laws. Even in today’s tough economy, and in the face of rising costs and shrinking staff, companies must remain a step ahead of these complex compliance requirements.
The practice of IT Audit and Compliance identifies and remediates any violations of these regulations and requirements from both a technical and procedural perspective.

· IT Auditing and Risk Assessment Services
· Privacy and IT Regulatory Compliance Services
· Business Resiliency (disaster recovery, business continuity, incident response) Planning
· Outsourced Information Security Officer duties

When a prospect has a challenge that we solve, the SDR schedules a “discovery call” with our in-house product experts. A typical workday is comprised of phone calls, potential email communications, discovery calls and reporting. The marketing team supplies the SDR with leads that have requested information and provide various internet-based research tools for additional prospecting.
The position is a full-time position 40 hours a week. The SDR position has advancement potential within the sales and marketing departments.
