  • Conduct vendor and partner verification and vetting activities and help maintain vendor records, certifications, evaluations, and related documentation.
  • Support human resources compliance activities, including federal, state, local, and international requirements, employee certification documentation, annual training, job posting and salary transparency requirements, and regulatory reporting.
  • Assist with internal HR audits covering areas such as employment documentation, workers' compensation, EEO compliance, and related personnel requirements.
  • Participate in governance or change-control activities, facilitate process discussions, and escalate risks or unresolved issues when appropriate.
Requirements
  • 5–7 years of experience applying Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) practices and requirements throughout the Project Management Life Cycle (PMLC).
  • Required CMMI V3.0 or higher Practitioner Certification and ISO 9001:2015 Lead Auditor Certification.
  • Experience creating and maintaining process documentation, process flows, models, templates, and related organizational assets.
  • Demonstrated experience conducting audits or assessments across departments, divisions, programs, or projects and tracking nonconformances through resolution.
