Job Details
Role Summary: This role serves as the definitive Retail Compliance Authority for the project. This position is responsible for mapping complex, multi-jurisdictional licensing requirements—particularly those with high risk (Alcohol, Health)—to ensure the new application and outsourced process are legally sound and risk-mitigated.
Responsibilities:
- Rule Definition & Documentation: Define, document, and categorize all mandatory license renewal criteria, supporting documents, lead times, and required fees for the high-volume/high-risk retail license portfolio (e.g., ABC, Health, Tobacco, Fire, Propane).
- Dependency Mapping: Create a definitive map of all inter-license dependencies (e.g., Business License must be active for Health renewal; Health must be active for ABC renewal) to inform the system's workflow logic.
- Jurisdictional Variability: Identify and document key variances in renewal processes across different states and municipalities, focusing on areas requiring unique forms, affidavits, or public notice/hearing requirements.
- Compliance Escalation: Act as the Tier 3 expert for all complex jurisdictional compliance questions during the design, configuration, and pilot phases.
- Knowledge Transfer: Serve as the primary instructor to train the Offshore Process Transition Lead and the Platform Configuration Specialist on the core licensing process and critical non-compliance risks.
5+ years of direct experience managing multi-jurisdiction license and permit renewals for a large national retailer, restaurant, or quick-service chain.
Expert knowledge of Complex license renewals (Alcoholic Beverage Control/ABC, Health Department Permits, Hazardous Materials).
Proven ability to interpret and document complex regulatory text (statutes, municipal codes) into clear, actionable business rules.
Strong grasp of the license renewal lifecycle, from application to closeout and archival.
Ideal candidate will be located in/near the Chesapeake, VA but not mandatory
