Position Summary

The Compliance Project Manager will lead the owner-organization’s finance-focused compliance program for a large semiconductor manufacturing campus. The role owns the end-to-end lifecycle of federal and state-funded finance compliance cases from identification, documentation, assignment, investigation, corrective action, escalation, resolution, to final close-out. Serving as the hub for Finance, Legal, Procurement, Contracts, Project Controls, Construction Management, and external auditors, the manager ensures that every finance-related compliance issue is properly assigned, tracked, substantiated with evidence, and formally closed in accordance with applicable statutes, regulations, and funding agreements.

Role and Responsibilities

1. Compliance Case Management - Create and maintain a centralized finance-compliance case system that logs, classifies, prioritizes, assigns, and tracks cases linked to federal/state funding requirements. Define severity levels and escalation thresholds that reflect financial risk. Monitor case aging, overdue corrective actions, and generate trend analyses on recurring funding-compliance issues.
2. Federal, State, and Local Compliance - Maintain awareness of changes to compliance requirements and ensure affected cases are appropriately updated, thereby supporting administrative and contractual obligations, workforce requirements, Davis-Bacon requirements where applicable, contractor/subcontractor requirements, reporting obligations, and documentation and evidence requirements.
3. Contractor Compliance - Verify contractor/sub-contractor cost-accounting systems, certified payroll, and labor-rate reporting comply with applicable finance rules. Document contractor responses, evaluate corrective actions (e.g., revised cost breakdowns, payroll adjustments), and track to closure.
4. Reporting - Produce dashboards and periodic reports for senior leadership, finance, and legal stakeholders. Highlight key metrics: case volume, closure rate, financial exposure, corrective-action cost impact, and audit readiness status.
5. Audit Support - Maintain complete case files, supporting invoices, cost-allowance justifications, and audit trails for internal, external, and federal auditors. Facilitate audit walkthroughs, respond to audit queries, and implement corrective-action plans to remediate audit findings.
