Director, Compliance Operations

The Compliance Operations team enables Honor 's growth by transforming regulatory requirements into scalable operational practices. We partner across Regulatory, Product, Operations, Trust & Safety, Training, Market Leadership, and our Home Instead network to ensure Honor can confidently expand into new markets while maintaining the highest standards of quality, safety, and compliance. As Director of Risk & Compliance Operations at Honor , you will:

• Set the strategic direction for the Compliance Operations function - defining how Honor manages compliance across employment law and home care licensing as we grow into new markets and expand our service offerings.

• Continuously assess for compliance risk and for opportunities to simplify, streamline, or eliminate operational friction in how we meet regulatory requirements.

• Own day-to-day compliance execution across all markets, personally stepping in to resolve complex issues while building durable systems and protocols so issues don't recur.

• Partner with Product and Engineering to build tech-first, automated solutions that reduce manual compliance effort and scale our operations - including building the business case for technical investment, defining requirements, and driving implementation.

• Lead state licensing audits and audit-readiness programs end to end - identifying gaps proactively, developing remediation plans, and driving closure across internal and field partner teams.

• Ensure operational readiness for new markets and service offerings.

• Translate regulatory changes into clear, actionable operational requirements, ensuring Legal guidance becomes executable protocol across the business.

• Build and develop a high-performing team of 5-10 compliance and operations professionals, setting clear expectations, developing team members, and creating a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.

• Develop and own key compliance metrics and dashboards that give senior leadership clear visibility into risk, operational readiness, and efficiency across all markets.

• 8-10 years of experience in operations, product operations, or compliance roles within a technology-first or high-growth company - health tech, logistics, or distributed workforce environments are a strong fit.

• Demonstrated experience working at the intersection of technology and operations, including partnering with Product and Engineering teams to define requirements and deliver solutions.

• Track record of developing functional areas for scale - building the systems, processes, and team structures that enable the function to get ahead of problems rather than chase them.

• Exceptional analytical skills with experience working with large, complex, or imperfect data sets; proficiency with data visualization tools and experience developing operational KPIs.

• Strong cross-functional leadership and stakeholder management skills.

• Demonstrated people management experience, including developing high-performing teams and managing through ambiguity and change.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to distill complex regulatory or operational topics for non-expert audiences and senior leadership.

• Preferred: experience with employment law compliance, home care or healthcare regulation, state licensing, or multi-state regulatory environments.
