Hybrid$113k–$166k/yrFull-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes a summary paragraph at top. We can treat that as "About the role" or maybe "Summary". The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We should include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have location, responsibilities, desired skills (skills), minimum education, certificates, minimum years of experience, essential job expectations (maybe not needed), physical demands, work environment, disclaimer (boilerplate to remove), application process (remove), accommodation (maybe remove?), agency applications (remove), immigration sponsorship (remove), compensation (Pay), benefits, relocation (maybe part of benefits?), EEO (remove). We need to preserve all substantive information, but remove boilerplate/legal/EEO etc. So we keep: location, responsibilities, desired skills (skills), minimum education, certificates, minimum years of experience, essential job expectations? Might be considered generic but it's substantive about expectations; but it's basically generic expectations; but we can include maybe as part of "Requirements"? However they said prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. Could combine education, certificates, experience under "Qualifications". Skills under "Skills". Pay and Benefits separate if present. Pay: they gave hiring range $112,879 - $165,525 per year. Benefits: comprehensive package of benefits including medical/dental/vision insurance, and 401(k). Also mention hybrid work schedule (Schedule). Location also maybe part of "Location" but not a heading; we could include location in a short paragraph under maybe "About the role" or separate? They said do not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Location is not minor metadata; it's substantive. Could include as a paragraph under maybe "About the role" or its own heading? There's no heading for location in the list; but we could include it as a paragraph after summary. Probably best to include location in a

after summary. We need to avoid boilerplate: remove disclaimer, application process, accommodation, agency applications, immigration sponsorship, EEO, etc. Also remove "Physical Demands", "Work Environment" maybe not needed? They are substantive but maybe not required headings; but we could include them under a generic "Working Conditions" but not in list. Since they said prefer few substantive sections, maybe we omit physical demands and work environment unless they are critical. However they said preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we must keep that info somewhere. Could include them in a paragraph under maybe "Working Conditions" but not a heading from list? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. It says "Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." That implies we should use those headings when appropriate. It doesn't say we cannot add other headings, but to follow the pattern we likely should stick to those. However we need to preserve all substantive info; we could embed physical demands and work environment into a paragraph under maybe "About the role" or "Responsibilities"? Not ideal but acceptable. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine location, physical demands, work environment into a short paragraph under "About the role". That would preserve info. Thus sections: About the role (summary + location + physical demands + work environment maybe), Responsibilities, Skills, Qualifications (education, certificates, experience), Pay, Benefits, Schedule (hybrid work schedule). Also maybe "Essential Job Expectations" could be part of Qualifications? But it's about expectations; we could incorporate into Qualifications or About the role. To keep sections few, we can omit a separate section for expectations and fold into Qualifications or About the role. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for HR Compliance Manager. We must not include Job ID etc. We must not include filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. Now craft HTML. We'll start with

About the role

then

containing summary sentence(s) plus location, physical demands, work environment. Summary: "DLA Piper is, at its core, bold, exceptional, collaborative and supportive. Our people are the backbone, heart and soul of our firm. Wherever you are in your professional journey, DLA Piper is a place you can engage in meaningful work and grow your career. Let’s see what we can achieve. Together. Summary The HR Compliance Manager, working in collaboration with and in support of the firm’s strategic initiatives, leads the firm’s employment compliance function, ensuring alignment with federal, state, and local employment laws, regulatory requirements, and internal policies. As the HR Compliance Manager, you will focus on strengthening and continuously improving HR policies, procedures, and practices through proactive risk assessment, audits, training, and advisory support. You will be serving as a trusted subject matter expert, partner closely with leadership and cross-functional stakeholders to identify compliance risks, recommend solutions, and support informed decision-making. While the role does not include direct people management, it requires strong ownership of compliance processes, influence across the organization, and execution of firmwide compliance initiatives." We can keep that as prose. Then location: "This position can sit in our Chicago, Atlanta, Austin, Baltimore, Boston, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, Philadelphia, Phoenix, Raleigh, Reston, San Diego, Seattle, Short Hills, Washington DC, or Wilmington office and offers a hybrid work schedule." Physical demands: "Sedentary work: This is primarily sedentary work, requiring occasional exertion of up to 10 pounds of force to lift, carry, push, pull, or move objects. The role involves sitting for extended periods, with occasional walking and standing, and occasional travel, both domestic and international." Work environment: maybe combine with hybrid schedule already mentioned; but we can include: "The individual selected for this position may have the opportunity for a hybrid work arrangement comprised of remote and in-office work, the requirement for which will be determined in coordination with the hiring manager or supervisor and may be modified in the firm’s discretion in the future." But we already mentioned hybrid schedule in location sentence; we can keep that. We'll combine location and hybrid schedule in one sentence. Now Responsibilities: list bullet points. We need to extract responsibilities bullet points from the posting: - Employment Law & Regulatory Compliance * Monitor, interpret, and assess changes in federal, state, and local employment laws and regulations; ensure timely and compliant updates to Firm policies, practices, and procedures. * Serve as the subject matter expert on Firm HR policies and procedures, providing guidance to HR, leadership, and other stakeholders. * Act as the primary liaison with the Office of General Counsel on HR compliance matters, including risk assessment and mitigation. - Policy, Documentation & Governance * Develop, maintain, and govern HR compliance documentation, ensuring strong document control, versioning, and audit readiness. * Lead the timely development, implementation, and communication of HR policies, procedures, and related guidance materials. * Ensure policies and practices are consistently applied and aligned with legal requirements and Firm standards. - Compliance Planning, Audits & Risk Management * Maintain a comprehensive calendar of HR compliance obligations and proactively develop and manage project plans to ensure timely execution. * Recommend, plan, and lead internal audits of HR processes to ensure compliance with legal, regulatory, and organizational standards. * Lead special projects related to HR compliance, risk mitigation, and policy development as needed. - Training, Education & Ongoing Compliance Monitoring * Oversee the development, implementation, and ongoing administration of mandatory HR compliance training programs, including harassment prevention, workplace conduct, and other legally required trainings. * Monitor completion, tracking, and certification of required training programs to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local requirements. * Partner with internal stakeholders to update training content in response to legal changes, policy updates, or identified risk areas. - Reporting, Metrics & Statutory Filings * Manage and produce HR compliance reporting, including collaboration with internal and external partners to prepare and submit required statutory filings (e.g., EEO, VETS, pay data reporting). * Generate compliance, audit, training, and HR metrics reports for leadership review. * Monitor and report on compliance-related activities and emerging risks. - HR Systems, Technology & Process Alignment * Partner with HR Technology & Reporting, Payroll, and Benefits teams to ensure Workday time and absence configurations align with Firm policies, procedures, and regulatory requirements. * Identify gaps or inefficiencies and recommend programmatic or system-based solutions to strengthen and scale HR compliance processes. - Stakeholder Communication & Strategic Alignment * Keep HR leadership and key stakeholders informed of compliance status, risks, and progress against established plans. * Remain apprised of strategic Firm initiatives and align HR compliance priorities and action plans with overall Firm goals. * Promote a positive, respectful, and compliant workplace culture aligned with the Firm’s values. * Other duties as assigned.
