The Public Health GRC market
Public health runs on trust and on data, which makes governance the quiet center of the work. Health departments, public-health agencies, global-health nonprofits, and schools of public health handle some of the most sensitive population data there is, under grant rules, federal requirements, and intense public scrutiny. As disease surveillance, modeling, and health-equity programs lean on AI and large data sets, the privacy, data-governance, and AI-governance work stacks on top of the traditional compliance, risk, and audit base. If you want your GRC skills protecting communities instead of margins, public health is a deep and mission-driven place to do it.
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, 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; 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 Advertised ranges tend to run wider than what is actually paid, and roles that do not publish a range are missing from the calculation entirely, which can bias the result upward.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.

Certifications that come up most
