What this role is

The most senior executive accountable for enterprise-wide loss prevention, asset protection, and inventory shrink strategy. At the Vice President (E3) level, the role owns a division, market and competitive strategy, and drives division-wide. Leads a division's leadership team.

What this level does

  • Lead loss prevention across a large division or region through senior executives, carrying enterprise-level shrink and security risk as a major strategic role.
  • Shape corporate asset-protection strategy for large business areas — defining how the enterprise prevents, detects and resolves loss at scale and how security posture supports growth into new formats or geographies.
  • Represent the company externally on retail-crime and security matters (industry ORC coalitions, regulatory/law-enforcement forums), and participate in enterprise strategy on risk exposure.
  • Own the enterprise investment thesis for loss prevention technology (CCTV/analytics, EAS, exception-based reporting), sponsoring the transitions that reset the shrink cost curve.
  • Hold accountability for enterprise loss and safety outcomes, ensuring investigative integrity and legal defensibility of the LP program at scale.
Knowledge applied
Shapes corporate asset-protection strategy for large units or functions, drawing on enterprise-level understanding of shrink economics, security risk and retail-crime trends.
Complexity & problem solving
Addresses enterprise-level risks with critical strategic impact — resetting the shrink cost curve and security posture as the business scales or enters new formats.
Collaboration & interaction
Represents the company externally on retail-crime and security matters and participates in enterprise strategy alongside peer executives.
Typical experience
15–20+ years with demonstrated enterprise-impact experience across large divisions or regions.

Shrink & Shortage Program Governance
Sets, allocates and defends enterprise shortage (shrink) and safety goals across stores, districts and regions, translating them into funded loss-prevention programs and holding the organization accountable for the outcomes.

Governs the standards for investigating internal theft, external theft and vendor fraud, and sets the enterprise posture for collaborating with law enforcement to report and pursue crimes including organized retail crime.
Physical Security & Surveillance Technology Strategy
Directs enterprise investment in and deployment of physical-security systems — alarms, closed-circuit cameras and electronic article surveillance (EAS) — sizing coverage against cost across the location portfolio.
Loss Prevention Resource Deployment
Assesses security needs across locations to ensure proper deployment of loss-prevention resources, balancing in-house versus contract security staffing and technology coverage against risk and budget.
Cross-Functional Loss Root-Cause Leadership
Leads collaboration with store management and cross-functional teams to identify the root causes of loss and to develop, fund and scale effective preventive solutions across the enterprise.

Applies knowledge of security equipment, policies, procedures and strategies to govern the protection of people, data, property and institutions at enterprise scale, ensuring the program's legal defensibility.
Enterprise Risk & Board Engagement
