• Monitor and interpret evolving trade regulations, sanctions, and import/export requirements; assess and communicate operational impact to internal stakeholders
• Maintain working knowledge of partner government agency (PGA) requirements (FDA, USDA, CPSC, EPA, FCC, Fish & Wildlife) and ensure required permits, licenses, and certifications are obtained and documented
• Support administration of free trade agreements (e.g., USMCA) by conducting rules of origin analyses, managing certificates of origin, and identifying duty savings opportunities
• Screen transactions against restricted and denied party lists; escalate potential violations as required
• Review and audit entry filings, customs documentation, valuation, and country-of-origin determinations for accuracy
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders, freight forwarders, and customs brokers to resolve compliance holds, discrepancies, and regulatory inquiries
• Build and maintain standard operating procedures (SOPs) and compliance controls; develop training materials to strengthen the organization's trade compliance posture
• Manage and communicate exam, inspection, and hold statuses internally and externally to minimize supply chain disruption
