• Manage Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) plans and storm water pollution prevention programs where applicable
• Coordinate with Facilities and Operations on environmental requirements triggered by site construction, expansion, or changes in chemical inventory
• Serve as the point of escalation for environmental incidents, regulatory notifications, and corrective actions related to EPA-regulated activities
• Monitor EPA regulatory changes and enforcement activity relevant to Stord’s operations; assess impact and update compliance programs accordingly
• Build and own Stord’s enterprise GMP and GDP compliance programs -- designing the standards, SOPs, and qualification frameworks that enable Stord to onboard and serve regulated customers at scale across health, wellness, supplement, and pharmaceutical-adjacent accounts

• Maintain working knowledge of FDA guidance, NSF, and other applicable standards that intersect with Stord’s customer base and product handling requirements
• Build and maintain a GMP/GDP compliance library: training materials, audit checklists, SOP templates, and certification documentation for use across the network
• Build and own Stord’s enterprise Hazardous Materials compliance program -- designing the program for our fulfillment locations, OSHA Hazard Communication, EPA chemical reporting, and state-specific requirements across the full facility network
• Maintain the enterprise Hazmat program: classification standards, handling and storage requirements, labeling, SDS management systems, and spill response frameworks
• Establish and maintain Hazmat acceptance criteria and screening processes to ensure sites are equipped to handle regulated materials received from customers
• Coordinate Hazmat compliance requirements with Transportation, Operations, and Facilities during new site launches, customer onboarding, and facility modifications
• Manage DOT compliance requirements for sites involved in the outbound transportation of regulated materials, including proper shipping papers, packaging, and labeling standards
• Architect the enterprise internal compliance audit program from the ground up -- establishing audit scope, methodology, scoring frameworks, and corrective action workflows that give the organization a consistent, repeatable mechanism for identifying and closing compliance gaps
• Conduct or coordinate compliance audits across the network, producing written findings, risk ratings, and actionable corrective action plans for site and regional leaders
• Manage the enterprise corrective action tracking system for compliance findings, ensuring closure within defined timelines and verifying effectiveness
• Prepare the network for external regulatory inspections and customer audits -- developing site-readiness checklists, conducting pre-audit walkthroughs, and providing on-site support during inspections where required
• Maintain an inspection and audit calendar for all sites, tracking regulatory visit history, findings, and corrective action status in a centralized compliance management system
• Produce regular compliance performance reporting for the Head of HSS and senior leadership, including audit scores, open findings, and trend analysis
• Establish and operate a systematic regulatory intelligence function -- monitoring federal and state activity across OSHA, EPA, FDA, and DOT to identify proposed rules, final rules, and enforcement trends before they affect Stord’s operations
• Translate regulatory changes into policy updates, program revisions, and implementation plans; communicate impacts clearly to the Head of HSS, Regional Managers, and site teams
• Own Stord’s compliance policy library: drafting, reviewing, updating, and version-controlling all compliance-related policies and written programs
• Serve as subject matter authority for compliance questions from Regional Managers, Site Managers, Operations, Legal, and Customer Success
• Contribute compliance expertise to new site launch processes, automation deployments, and major operational changes to ensure regulatory requirements are built in from the start
• Build the enterprise compliance reporting infrastructure from the ground up -- designing the metrics framework, data architecture, and dashboard suite that give the Head of HSS and senior leadership a real-time, accurate view of compliance performance across the network
• Define the enterprise compliance KPI set selecting the leading and lagging indicators that most accurately represent program health, regulatory risk, and operational compliance posture -- and ensuring those metrics are collected consistently across all sites
• Design and own compliance dashboards that surface OSHA recordable rates, audit scores, corrective action aging, training completion rates, certification status, and regulatory inspection outcomes in a format that is actionable at the executive, regional, and site levels
• Build data collection standards and reporting protocols across the network -- establishing how compliance data is captured, validated, and submitted from sites and regions to ensure the enterprise view is reliable and comparable
• Develop regular compliance performance reporting cadences for the Head of HSS, Operations leadership, and the Safety and Security Steering Committee -- translating raw data into clear narratives, trend analysis, and risk-flagged summaries that drive decisions
• Identify systemic compliance risks and program gaps through data analysis -- surfacing patterns across sites, regions, and regulatory domains that individual site or regional reports would not reveal in isolation
• Partner with Operations, Finance, and Technology to integrate compliance data into broader business reporting platforms, ensuring compliance metrics are visible alongside operational and financial performance indicators
• Maintain a compliance metrics library and reporting archive that provides the organization with historical performance data, audit trails, and the documentation needed to demonstrate program maturity to regulators, customers, and insurers
• Build the enterprise compliance training architecture: designing the training matrix, specifying required topics, applicable employee populations, delivery methods, and completion frequencies across all regulatory domains -- the standard that governs what compliance training looks like at every Stord site
• Develop compliance training content and supporting materials for use by site and regional teams -- including written programs, quick reference guides, audit checklists, and SOP templates
• Govern training completion compliance across the network through record audits and gap reporting; escalate systemic deficiencies to Regional Managers with a remediation timeline

• Experience managing compliance programs across a multi-site network, including audit program design and regulatory agency interaction
• Track record of translating complex regulatory requirements into practical, scalable operational programs
• Deep working knowledge of OSHA General Industry standards, recordkeeping requirements, and enforcement processes
• Strong familiarity with EPA compliance obligations applicable to warehouse and fulfillment operations, including Tier II, SPCC, and RCRA
• Working knowledge of GMP and GDP standards as they apply to regulated fulfillment, distribution, and third-party logistics

• CHMM (Certified Hazardous Materials Manager) or equivalent preferred
• REHS, REM, or equivalent environmental compliance credential a plus
• GMP/GDP auditor certification or equivalent regulated industry compliance credential preferred
• Advanced OSHA coursework preferred
• A regulatory expert, not a generalist -- you have deep knowledge in at least two of the core compliance domains and the intellectual curiosity to go deep in the others
• A program architect -- you build compliance infrastructure that scales across dozens of sites without requiring your personal presence at each one. Your programs are self-sustaining by design
• Proactive and ahead of the curve -- you're tracking rulemaking before it becomes a requirement and updating programs before an inspector identifies the gap
• A credible advisor -- Regional Managers and site teams bring you their hardest compliance questions because you give clear, practical answers grounded in the actual regulation
• Detail-oriented without losing the thread -- you can manage a 30-site audit calendar and still see the systemic risk patterns that individual findings represent
• A strong written communicator -- your policies are readable, your audit reports are actionable, and your regulatory summaries make complex requirements understandable to operators
