The role requires a highly collaborative and influential leader who can persuade and align partners-including Sourcing, Brands, Quality, Food Safety, Legal, suppliers, manufacturers, and other stakeholders, especially when compliance requirements are complex, ambiguous, or require changes to established business practices. Success in this role depends on maintaining and continuously improving the program by driving cross-functional workflows, defining, and tracking applicable metrics, leveraging automation, and building strong organizational capabilities that translate compliance-technical requirements into practical business solutions.
