Work with HR and other business groups (e.g., Compliance and Information Security) to oversee and support implementation, review and revision of policies, processes, procedures and forms.
Assess compliance requirements and legal risk under federal and state employment laws and regulations, and advise HR of new developments and requirements.
Proactively monitor legal developments, industry and regulatory trends and topics, and legislative initiatives.
Develop and conduct training for HR professionals on topics involving employment law compliance and HR best practices.

Juris Doctorate (J.D.) degree from an ABA accredited law school and admission to at least one U.S. state bar.
Working at least three days per week on-site at our Framingham Corporate Headquarters under our hybrid work model.

Excellent analytical ability and professional judgment, and skill at developing practical, creative solutions that advance important business objectives while minimizing potential legal risks.
Responsiveness with a customer focused mindset, the ability to manage and prioritize many tasks to deliver timely, high-quality work, and excellent organizational skills.
Ability to influence senior executives and business leaders.
Ability to drive results on a broad range of projects and initiatives, collaborating across business units.
Excellent oral and written communication skills.
