Building a new legal compliance division during a pandemic is not for the feint hearted. Hector Garcia, lead of legal and compliance express centre in LATAM and Canada at Bayer shares how he has managed the challenge of building a new brand new in-house legal team remotely.
The Bayer legal and compliance express centre for LATAM and Canada is changing the way it provides compliance and data privacy services, as well as how it handles compliance investigations.
I started this new role at Bayer in March, just as the COVID-19 pandemic broke. As a result, I had to build a whole team remotely. The entire hiring process occurred virtually as I was not able to travel to regions such as Brazil and Costa Rica.
