  •  Conduct and support acquisition due diligence and integration activities.
  • Manage and periodically conduct trade compliance training for business unit trade compliance staff and the organization at large, including sales, finance, or engineering business partners.
  • Support trade compliance audits and implement corrective actions, as required.
  • Support the performance of each business unit’s trade compliance staff and daily trade compliance activities and function as a resource for business units on various topics, including:
    • Export classification and jurisdiction determinations.

    • Management of Customs Brokers
    • Record-keeping and accurate documentation
    • Review and approval of visitor and travel requests.
  • Lead, report, and/or assist with investigations of any incidences of purported non-compliance with export/import laws and regulations, identification, implementation, and maintenance of corrective actions, and drafting and filing of voluntary or prior disclosures with Government regulatory agencies.
  • Work cross-functionally with business teams across the company to analyze legal risks, devise creative solutions, and develop strong, trusted advisor relationships.
  • Keep abreast of changes in trade laws and regulations (including Free Trade Agreements and other duty deferral programs) to ensure compliance and provide strategic advice to operating units.

 

Job Qualifications:

  • Significant experience (at least 10 years) and expertise in domestic and international trade compliance.
  • Ability to interact effectively with other functions, including Engineering, Program Management, Supply Chain, and Logistics, as well as Business Unit Trade Compliance staff and corporate leadership.

  • Specific experience with trade compliance in manufacturing, specifically aerospace and defense, is preferred.
  • Strong leadership, communication (written, oral, and presentations), and interpersonal skills.
  • Strong critical thinking and project management skills, ability to exercise independent judgment and manage complexity and ambiguity.
  • Demonstrated proficiency and experience in managing complex trade compliance matters and developing innovative solutions with a successful record of problem-solving.
  • Ability to manage a high volume of work at a detailed level in a fast-paced environment, working with frequent interruptions and minimal day-to-day supervision.
