Compliance Assurance (New Oversight Framework Deploy...

📍 Location: Brussels, Belgium (Hybrid)

📅 Duration: Until year-end (possible extension based on outcomes)

About the Mission

Our client that operates ion the financial services is preparing for a new Belgian oversight framework targeting providers of financial messaging services. The National Bank of Belgium (NBB) will act as the competent authority, moving oversight from largely “soft law” to a binding, enforceable regime.

As part of this evolution, a new Compliance Assurance and Reporting team is being established. The mission’s goal is to design and pilot a clear, reusable assurance methodology for the new Oversight Law — and later for broader compliance domains.

Key Deliverables

✅ Design a repeatable assurance approach – how to define scope, perform testing, rate issues, and follow up

✅ Translate the Oversight Act into practical compliance checks – define roles, evidence, and review frequency

✅ Pilot and refine the approach on a test sample

✅ Prepare easy-to-use templates (test notes, action logs, management summary reports)

✅ Use JIRA to track work (no complex setup required) and ensure all outputs are GRC-ready

✅ Deliver a limited assurance report on the new oversight framework by year-end
