About the job

With the widespread impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, the growth and diversification of our products, and the proliferation of new and at times fragmented laws and reporting requirements, we face one of the most exciting and testing moments as a company. The newly formed Risk, Compliance and Integrity organization (RCI) brings together critical compliance, assurance, risk and governance functions across Google to help the company meet compliance needs and enable our businesses to innovate. Our goal is to make compliance an engaged advantage for Google by driving scaled, data-driven, and policy-based compliance programs. We manage our operations through risk-based prioritization and governance and consistent and constructive regulator engagement.

We are seeking an experienced compliance program manager to drive key privacy compliance programs. This role demands an understanding of compliance frameworks, risk assessment, and internal controls, coupled with the ability to collaborate effectively across the organization and influence at all levels. The ideal Program Manager is someone with a bias toward action, exceptional communication skills, and a track record of building and managing robust compliance programs.

In addition to a compliance foundation, this role requires exceptional program management capabilities. The successful person will have a demonstrated ability to track, report on, and effectively manage compliance initiatives from inception to completion. This includes defining clear objectives, establishing metrics, monitoring progress, and ensuring timely and accurate reporting to stakeholders.
