Director of Compliance & Risk Management

Location: York County, Maine
Reports To: Chief Executive Officer

York County Community Action Corporation (YCCAC) is seeking an experienced and collaborative Director of Compliance & Risk Management to provide strategic leadership for the organization's agency-wide compliance and risk management program. This is a key leadership position that works closely with executive leadership, Department Directors, and the Board of Directors to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local regulations while strengthening organizational systems that promote accountability, transparency, continuous improvement, and operational excellence.

Position Summary

The Director of Compliance & Risk Management leads and coordinates agency-wide compliance and risk management efforts across all programs and departments. This position serves as a strategic partner to leadership by helping departments understand and implement regulatory requirements, strengthen internal controls, prepare for audits and monitoring visits, identify and mitigate organizational risks, and foster a culture of ethical practice and continuous improvement.

• Provide regular reports to the Board Compliance and Personnel Committee.
• Attend Board meetings and present compliance and risk management updates as needed.
