About the Role

We’re looking for a Director of Compliance to build upon and scale our existing compliance program. This is a critical leadership role responsible for maturing VantageScore’s compliance program. Reporting to the General Counsel, you will own the strategic evolution of our compliance infrastructure.

You will be responsible for enhancing existing policies, implementing sophisticated systems, and managing key risk areas across the Company.

You’ll partner closely with Legal, Data Science, Data & Technology, and business teams to ensure that the Company’s policies, procedures, controls, and monitoring align with relevant laws and regulations. The Director of Compliance will also be responsible for promoting a culture of integrity and ethical behavior throughout the organization.

This is a hybrid role requiring three days per week in the office, preferably at our Washington, D.C. or South San Francisco, CA location.

Key Responsibilities

  • Compliance Enhancement & Strategy Lead the continued development, implementation, and oversight of VantageScore’s enterprise compliance program, ensuring alignment with business objectives and other applicable requirements.

Lead compliance monitoring and risk assessment activities, identifying gaps and implementing corrective action plans.

Identify and escalate potential compliance concerns and coordinate appropriate remediation with Legal. Antitrust and Competition Compliance. Support the continued development and implementation of the Company’s antitrust compliance program, including policies, training, risk assessments, monitoring, and compliance reviews. Privacy & Data Governance. Support the Company’s privacy and data governance programs, including monitoring regulatory developments, reviewing applicable policies, and collaborating with technical and business teams to strengthen compliance controls. Compliance Monitoring and Risk Management. Develop and maintain risk-based compliance monitoring, auditing, and reporting processes.
