Compliance Operations & Enforcement Excellence
- Oversee day-to-day enforcement workflows, SLA adherence, and quality assurance for Specialists
- Ensure consistent application of policies, risk frameworks, and escalation matrices across channels
- Partner with BPO and AI workflows to operationalize routine enforcement, coaching partners as needed
- Drive improvements to SOPs, playbooks, and operational processes to enable scale
- Ensure effective collaboration with vendors and external partners to remediate compliance issues efficiently
- Transform workflows by putting AI at the center, building smarter systems and ways of working from the ground up.
Cross-Functional Enablement
- Support adoption of internal systems, reporting, and workflow improvements
- Partner with Compliance Operations Analysts to identify gaps and propose operational improvements
Who You Are:
- Experienced people manager (4+ years) with a passion for coaching and developing high-performing teams
- Strong operational thinker with experience improving workflows, systems, and performance through process and data design
- Comfortable guiding teams through ambiguous, high-stakes enforcement decisions within defined frameworks
- Excellent communicator, able to explain compliance expectations and guidance to team members and peers
- Technically curious, familiar with AI/BPO workflows, reporting systems, and messaging platforms
- You’ve already experimented with AI in work or personal projects, and you’re excited to dive in and learn fast. You’re hungry to responsibly explore new AI tools and workflows, finding ways to make your work smarter and more efficient.
