• Monitor deadlines and regulatory changes that may affect licensing, permit, or tax-related obligations across applicable locations.
• Support compliance efforts related to sales and use tax by maintaining records and assisting with documentation reviews as needed.
• Investigate issues independently, identify practical solutions, and escalate complex matters when necessary.
• Contribute to process consistency by documenting workflows and recommending improvements that strengthen organization and follow-through.

Qualifications:

• Previous experience in licensing, compliance, registrations, or a closely related administrative support function.

• Strong research skills with the ability to interpret requirements and apply them accurately to licensing tasks.

• Excellent organizational skills and careful attention to detail in managing documents, deadlines, and follow-up actions.

• Clear written and verbal communication skills with the ability to work effectively across teams.
