Company info
- UKG designs and ships purpose-built hardware - time clocks, biometric readers, and access control devices - to customers in 100 + countries across the globe.
- As UKG expands its international hardware footprint and brings new products to market, the complexity of global trade compliance has grown significantly.
- Today, export compliance responsibilities are distributed informally across Legal, Finance, and Logistics with no dedicated owner.
- That creates risk.
- The Global Trade Compliance Manager is a new Individual Contributor role that will build and operate UKG's global export compliance program for hardware products.
- Reporting to the Director, Supply Chain Operations, this person will serve as the internal subject matter expert on export control regulations, trade sanctions, and country-specific import requirements - and will embed compliance into the operational processes that govern how UKG ships hardware worldwide.
- This is a builder role.
- You will not be inheriting a mature compliance program - you will be designing it, documenting it, and earning the trust of cross-functional partners who need to understand why compliance is a business enabler, not a blocker.
- Screen customers, distributors, end-users, and shipping destinations against OFAC SDN lists,
