Russell Flansburg

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented Compliance Manager with over 15 years of experience in overseeing risk-based audits and ensuring regulatory compliance. My career has been marked by my ability to implement complex compliance measures that not only meet regulatory standards but also drive business growth. I pride myself on my proficiency in managing operating expenses and establishing cost reduction strategies, which have resulted in significant savings for my organizations.

In my current role as Senior Manager of Compliance at Rite Aid Corporation, I oversee risk-based audits across 700 stores in 10 states, successfully reducing violation risks by 20%. My collaborative approach has led to the creation of self-assessments that have reduced fines by 44%. Previously, I managed a team of six to ensure compliance and exceptional customer service in 602 stores, where we achieved an impressive 85% reduction in health department violations through strategic partnerships with local health authorities.

My commitment to excellence extends beyond compliance; I am passionate about mentoring and training staff to foster a culture of compliance and safety. I have been recognized as Compliance Partner of the Year at Rite Aid Corporation, a testament to my dedication and impact in the field.
