The Public Sector GRC market
In the public sector you are not just following the rules, you are part of the machine that makes them. Government agencies, transit and infrastructure authorities, and the civic-tech firms that serve them hire steadily for compliance, risk, privacy, audit, and information security built around FISMA, FedRAMP, NIST, and public-records and accountability rules. The work is stable and mission-bound, and as agencies pick up AI and modern data systems, the need for oversight talent keeps climbing. If you want your work to serve the public directly, the civic GRC market is wide open.
Compliance Officer pay stats as of Q2 2026
BLS put the 2024 median at $78,420. In 2026, market trackers show averages from roughly $99,000 to $120,000, with the top quartile above $160,000. Financial centers and senior governance roles sit at the top of that range.

How these figures were calculated, and sources
Primary source: our own board. Every figure above is the median midpoint of the salary ranges published in the live postings on this page. Nothing is estimated, modelled, or carried over from a previous month. It is recalculated each time the board refreshes.
What is included. Only postings that publish a salary range. Hourly, weekly and monthly rates are annualised (2,080 hours, 52 weeks, 12 months). Ranges below $20,000 a year are excluded as data-entry placeholders. A seniority band is shown only when at least five postings support it; director and executive / c-suite are present on this page but below that threshold, so no median is published for those bands.
What this is not. These are advertised ranges, not accepted offers. Advertised ranges tend to run wider than what is actually paid, and roles that do not publish a range are missing from the calculation entirely, which can bias the result upward.
For an independent benchmark , compare against the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics for SOC 13-1041 — Compliance Officers , published annually at bls.gov/oes. BLS reports actual wages across all employers rather than advertised ranges, so its medians normally sit below job-board figures.
Where the work is
Work mode: 5 remote, 0 hybrid, 100 on-site or unstated.
Seniority mix: mid (78), senior (15), director (7), executive (5)
Employers hiring more than one: Office of the Inspector General (5), Mistral AI (5), Defense Contract Management Agency (4), Army National Guard Units (4), Naval Air Systems Command (3), Air National Guard Units (3)
Skills these postings ask for
policy and procedure writing control testing and evidence collection regulatory change management SOX and SOC 2 readiness issue management and remediation tracking How to get a compliance job — the full career guide for this field: entry routes, transferable backgrounds, certifications and salary by level.
Certifications that come up most
None of these are universally required, but they appear often enough in Public Sector GRC postings to be worth knowing: CCEP, CRCM, CAMS, CIPP/US, AIGP . The certification academy covers what each one actually tests and who it is for.
