  • Investigate and resolve escalated customer complaints with legal and compliance implications
  • Help drive compliance with data privacy and data security regulations
  • Review and strengthen company policies, procedures, and internal controls
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Customer Relations, Marketing, Operations, and external counsel
  • Review and approve marketing materials, training content, and customer communications for compliance
  • Consistent and reliable attendance is expected


What You Need to Succeed

  • Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school (South Carolina preferred)
  • 3+ years of legal experience (law firm, in-house, or government), ideally in financial services or a regulated environment
  • Strong knowledge of consumer laws such as FCRA and TCPA, and related regulations
  • Ability to translate complex legal requirements into practical business guidance
  • Excellent writing, analytical, and communication skills
  • Detail-oriented with strong follow-through and sound judgement
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally with diverse teams and stakeholders
  • Tech-savvy with Microsoft Office; experience with Westlaw or LexisNexis preferred
  • Spanish language skills are a plus
  • Other duties, as assigned


What Sets You Apart
