About The Position

Do you love untangling complicated processes, building smarter workflows, and making systems actually work for the people using them? Do details energize you, but you’re equally happy collaborating with people across an organization? Are you someone who feels a real pull toward doing the right thing—and helping others do the same? If so, our Compliance team would love to meet you. The Compliance Generalist is a key driver of how our Compliance and Risk Management team works—today and into the future. This role is not just about keeping up with requirements; it’s about rethinking how we do the work so it’s clearer, more efficient, and more human for those we serve across the the midwest. You’ll help design and improve workflows using tools like Power BI, Power Automate, and SharePoint, making compliance processes easier to navigate, easier to track, and easier to improve. You’ll partner with colleagues across departments to turn data into insight, policies into practice, and ethical expectations into everyday actions. Lutheran Social Service of Minnesota is a dynamic social service organization serving children, youth and families, people with disabilities, older adults, and military veterans. Trustworthiness is a value and strength shared by our employees and recognized by the communities we serve. We offer an Alive Workplace (Supportive, Positive and Fun) and careers that challenge, energize, and reward employees. Consider joining us!
