CCB Compliance & Enforcement Agent I

State of Vermont • Calais, VT

About The Position

The Cannabis Control Board (CCB) is seeking a skilled and motivated person to help ensure compliance with Vermont’s cannabis rules and statutes. This role combines administrative work and hands-on field activities, including product registration, site inspections, and support for compliance investigations. The position collaborates with the compliance and licensing teams, cannabis licensees and applicants, and the public.

This is a home-based hybrid role involving telework and frequent travel, primarily in the Central Vermont area. The posting notes a preference for applicants near Orange and Washington Counties because of substantial travel in that general geographic area. Occasional travel to the Agency’s headquarters in Montpelier is required, and occasional evening or weekend field work may be needed. Regional coverage may change based on Agency and Compliance Division needs.
