Data Compliance Specialist (ITAR / AIIM / ARMA) – 6 Month Initial Contract
New Opportunity – Data Compliance Specialist (ITAR / AIIM / ARMA)
Holt Executive are actively partnered with a global leading technology organisation to support a critical interim assignment for a Data Compliance Specialist (ITAR / AIIM / ARMA) position.
Our partner is looking for someone to be responsible for designing, configuring, and maintaining secure document libraries and structures within their digital systems.
The Data Compliance Specialist (ITAR / AIIM / ARMA) will act as a technical authority for relevant compliance activities, translating complex regulatory and our partners frameworks (Information Management policies, ITAR, EAR, and UK Security Classifications) into rigid information architectures. By configuring systems to enforce data sovereignty, access protocols, and retention schedules, you will ensure that the International Government Business Unit operates efficiently while remaining technically compliant with international regulations.
Key Responsibilities required for the Data Compliance Specialist (ITAR / AIIM / ARMA) position:
- Design and implement libraries specifically architected to handle data with differing information classifications.
- Translate strict regulatory access requirements (e.g., citizenship-based access, Five Eyes restrictions) into technical permissions, security groups, and conditional access policies.
- Configure logic and metadata to segregate data between different projects, licenses, and Technical Assistance Agreements (TAAs).
- Manage the metadata taxonomy required to tag hardware, software, and technical data with their appropriate regulatory codes (e.g., ECCN, USML, Security Classification).
- Lead the migration of sensitive datasets from legacy repositories to target libraries, ensuring that classification tags and security labels travel with the data.
- Ensure information practices align with AIIM, ARMA, and strict international trade compliance standards (ITAR/EAR/UK Export Control).
- Deliver workshops and documentation to Sales, Business Development, and Engineering teams on how to use our partners systems to handle controlled data correctly.
Key Experience required for the Data Compliance Specialist (ITAR / AIIM / ARMA) position:
- Bachelor’s degree in Information Management, Library Science, Computer Science, or related field (or equivalent experience).
- 3+ years of experience in Information Management System configuration and administration.
- Demonstrable experience managing “Restricted,” “Classified,” or “Export Controlled” (ITAR/EAR) data environments.
- Ability to translate complex regulatory rules into technical specifications, folder structures, and permission models.
- Strong knowledge of records management frameworks (ISO 15489) and familiarity with United Kingdom Security Classifications.
