  • Select and manage insurance brokers and liaise with internal teams to ensure sufficient coverage and timely policy updates.
  • Oversee incident reporting, claim documentation, and insurance follow-ups for store locations.
  • Develop and implement related SOPs and track claims history across business lines.
  • Ensure company policies align with best practices in risk transfer and indemnity, including waiver of subrogation and third-party coverage handling (e.g., Constructions, logistics vendors, Roboshop operators).
  • Document Management & Compliance Support

  • Maintain organized records of all licensing, permitting, registration, and insurance documents.
  • Support internal audits or regulatory reviews by providing accurate and timely documentation.
  • Assist in the development of checklists and internal SOPs to ensure regulatory readiness for new locations.

  • What You Will Need

  • 3–5 years of experience in business licensing, permitting, insurance coordination, or related compliance / operations support, ideally within the retail industry.
  • Familiarity with North American business licensing frameworks (particularly U.S. states and Canadian provinces), and insurance documentation processes such as COIs and lease-based coverage requirements.
  • Demonstrated ability to coordinate with licensing agencies, insurance brokers, or other regulatory entities.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and process-driven, with strong documentation and cross-functional communication skills.
  • Native or excellent command of English is required; proficiency in additional languages (e.g., Spanish, Chinese) is a plus.
  • What We Offer

  • Market-competitive packages : we provide 401k, health insurance, PTO leave, paid sick leave, and family leave, etc.
