• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency and reduce organizational risk.
• Develop standardized workflows, tracking systems, and documentation.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree required.
• Five or more years of experience in compliance, franchise administration, legal operations, corporate governance, contract administration, project management, or a related field.
• Restaurant, franchise, real estate, or multi-unit retail experience strongly preferred.
• Exceptional organizational and project management skills.
• Strong written and verbal communication abilities.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities with minimal supervision.
• Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.
• Experience with document management systems and compliance tracking software is preferred.

The ideal candidate is:

• Exceptionally organized and detail oriented.
