Manager, Security Overview The Manager, Security (Governance, Risk & Compliance) plays a critical role in protecting Wayspring’s mission and reputation by ensuring we are trusted, audit‑ready, and confident in how we safeguard data. This leader owns our healthcare compliance and security assurance programs — including HIPAA, HITRUST, and vendor risk — and serves as the clear point person for how we demonstrate security to clients, partners, auditors, and regulators. More than checking boxes, this role helps turn our security posture into a true business advantage by accelerating client trust, enabling sales, and strengthening Wayspring’s long‑term regulatory foundation. This is a high‑impact, hands‑on role for someone who enjoys building smart, scalable programs and reducing friction across the organization. You’ll work closely with teams across Legal, IT, Engineering, Compliance, and the business to embed security into real workflows — not just policies on paper. With ownership of key audits, automation strategy, and future GRC growth, this role offers the opportunity to shape how compliance works at Wayspring as we scale, while making a measurable difference in how quickly and confidently we serve members and partners. This role reports to the VP, Architecture & Security and partners closely with Legal and Compliance to support enterprise regulatory and contractual obligations through effective security and technology governance.
