The Senior Manager, Regulatory & Compliance Reporting leads U.S. federal and state tobacco/nicotine regulatory reporting and the full lifecycle of tax-related licensing and permits for a multi-entity, multi-site smoke-free and smokeless portfolio (e.g., nicotine pouches, traditional smokeless tobacco, heated tobacco). This role owns end-to-end compliance execution (calendar, data integrity, submissions, records) and serves as the primary operational interface with internal stakeholders (Legal, External Affairs, Commercial, Supply Chain, Finance, Operations, Commercial) and with relevant regulators and tax administrators.

Success requires deep experience in highly regulated nicotine/tobacco environments, strong data and process discipline, and the ability to translate evolving requirements into scalable operations.

• Maintain a centralized license inventory and renewal workflow with proactive alerts; ensure coverage for all entities, sites, and sales channels (B2B, D2C, duty-free/other special channels if applicable).
• Partner with Manufacturing, Distribution, Retail, and Trade/Customs teams to ensure permits align with operational changes (new facilities, new products, new jurisdictions, entity changes).
• Coordinate permitting and reporting touchpoints with federal agencies and state/local tax administrators; ensure consistent, documented communications and timely follow-up.
• Identify opportunities to standardize license documentation, streamline renewals, and implement enabling technology (workflow tools, license management applications, compliance dashboards).
