Job Description

The Compliance Manager leads the regulatory and compliance team for our client's portfolios, covering regulatory compliance, international market readiness, product certifications, and marketing and labeling compliance. Reporting to the Director of Quality and Compliance, the role is the bridge between the regulatory team and the Director: routine decisions, document requests and day-to-day escalations stop here, so the Director can lead the full quality system rather than work inside it.

The Compliance Manager leads a team of regulatory specialists, sets the standard for their work, reviews and approves at overview level, and builds a clear development path to management. The role is expected to help hire and onboard the specialist team quickly, so the function is seated and trained, and ready to keep the business always ready: documentation built before it is requested, certifications current, and new retailers and international markets answered with a confident yes.
