Job Description:

This recruitment is intended to fill one (1) permanent, full-time, District Manager (Program Analyst 2) position in our Retail Services Division at the Oregon Liquor & Cannabis Commission (OLCC). This position reports to our office located at 9079 SE McLoughlin Blvd., Portland, Oregon.
Current qualified OLCC employee applicants will be given preference during the application review process.
Who are we?
The OLCC is the agency responsible for regulating the sale and service of alcoholic beverages in Oregon by administering the state's Liquor Control Act and regulating the production, processing and sale of recreational marijuana in Oregon through the Control, Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana and Industrial Hemp Act. The agency also regulates the production, processing and sale of medical products sold to Oregon Medical Marijuana Program (OMMP) cardholders in OLCC licensed marijuana retail shops.
The agency is comprised of four major operational programs; the Distilled Spirits Program, the Recreational Marijuana Program, the Public Safety Program and the Medical Marijuana Program. All four programs are supported by the Administration, Financial Services, and Support Services divisions. Revenue generated from these programs helps support state and local government programs.
The Retail Services Division operates within the Distilled Spirits Program. The Division oversees the operation of Oregon’s independently owned and operated liquor stores. Staff works closely with liquor store operators (agents) to help appropriately apply liquor regulations and retail operating procedures to their business operations within a control state system. Staff assist agents in managing the state’s liquor inventory within stores to ensure distilled spirits are available and responsibly sold to customers statewide.
What will you do?
The District Manager provides oversight and direction for the business processes for approximately 60 contract liquor store agents and their retail store locations within an assigned district. This position is the primary contact and liaison between store agents and OLCC, representing their interests to each other.

Advise agents on remodels and relocations. Help identify and evaluate potential sites. Recommend store hours.
- Complete, prepare, and process claims for damaged products. Assess each store’s product mix and stock levels. Assists in setting store inventory goals and approves adjustments based on agent’s needs or requests. Advise on merchandising-ordering strategies.
- Consult with new store applicants on their business proposals to include remodel or relocation plans. Monitor new agents to ensure they fulfill their remodel or relocation plans and are in compliance with store operational requirements.
- Identify and screen temporary agent applicants to determine if an applicant meets qualifications; work with temporary agents to operate stores until permanent appointments are made.
- Responsible for oversight of Distillery Retail Outlet Agents who are contracted to sell their manufactured Oregon-produced products.
- Represent OLCC to the public, civic groups, government agencies, and the alcoholic beverage industry.

- Monitor reports and other information on an ongoing basis to make sure that agents are following appropriate practices in ordering merchandise, controlling inventory, and depositing and reporting liquor sales.
- Assists agents with the closure of liquor stores or removing products from stores as needed to safeguard the state’s assets and protect the public. Take actions as necessary to gain compliance such as recommending, developing and/or monitoring improvement or compliance plans.

11 years from our humble beginnings as the founders of Fruitridge Health & Wellness in Sacramento, Connected now maintains a portfolio of proprietary top-shelf cannabis genetics cultivated in state-of-the-art grow facilities. We are proud to be the largest grower of premium flower in California.
