Hire a regulatory compliance expert in Greece and Cyprus

The new EU rulebook turned into a compliance program with owners, evidence, and a reporting rhythm management can follow.

A wave of EU regulation is arriving on companies in Greece and Cyprus that never needed a compliance function before. NIS2 pulls mid-sized operators in sectors from transport and energy to food and manufacturing into cybersecurity obligations, DORA does the same for financial entities and the technology providers behind them, and the EU AI Act is landing in stages on companies that build or deploy artificial intelligence. A regulatory compliance expert turns that wall of text into a program: which obligations actually apply, where the company stands against them, which controls close the gaps, who owns each control, and what evidence shows it operating.

The regulatory compliance experts on Hellenic Talent come from compliance and risk practices at Big 4 firms and top consultancies and from in-house roles in regulated sectors. What they bring is compliance practice, not legal services: programs, processes, controls, evidence, and training. Where a question needs formal legal interpretation, or representation before a court or an authority, that is work for the company's lawyers, and a good compliance expert says so unprompted.

What does a regulatory compliance expert actually do?

  • Map which of the new EU obligations apply to your company, entity by entity and system by system
  • Run gap assessments against NIS2, DORA, or the EU AI Act that state plainly where the company stands
  • Build a control framework sized to the company, with a named owner and a piece of evidence behind every control
  • Set a reporting rhythm so management sees compliance as it is, not as the last workshop left it
  • Prepare the company for supervisory questions: who answers, from which file, with what evidence
  • Train the people who operate the controls, because a control nobody runs is a diagram

How to choose the right regulatory compliance expert

What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.

  1. Programs, not assessments

    Has built compliance programs that operate, not only written assessments of them.

  2. Explains which rules bite

    Reads the regulation itself and can say in plain language which provisions bite for your company.

  3. Every control has an owner

    Builds controls with owners and evidence, sized to a mid-market company rather than transplanted from a multinational.

  4. Works alongside your lawyers

    Clear that formal legal interpretation and representation sit with the company's lawyers, and works comfortably alongside them.

  5. Knows the questions that come

    Has sat with clients in front of supervisors or auditors and knows which questions actually come.
