Ohio GRC Jobs 26 Open Roles

Ohio is built on insurance, healthcare systems, banking, and legacy manufacturing, and every one of those sectors runs large internal audit, operational risk, and increasingly ESG reporting teams. Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati each anchor major employers in these fields. For audit and operational risk professionals, the state offers steady, enterprise scale demand.

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, modeled, 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; senior / lead / manager is present on this page but below that threshold, so no median is published for that band.

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 Advertised ranges tend to run wider than what is actually paid, and roles that do not publish a range are missing from the calculation entirely, which can bias the result upward.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 13-2054 — Financial Risk Specialists, 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.
