GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

English to Spanish translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Human Resources / Employee Handbook
English term or phrase: Legal Compliance Officer
The term is in the Code of Business Conduct section.

The paragraph says:
"Any Associate who knows of any activity (including accounting or audit activity) which violates, has violated or could violate, any Code Statement should immediately contact the Legal Compliance Officer, XXXXXX, at 1-800-XXXX........

My question is should it be translated as
Oficial de Cumplimiento Legal or Oficial de Cumplimiento Normativo.

I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you in advance.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Estimada Adriana, Estoy un poco confundida porque, de acuerdo a la RAE, un Funcionario es quien desempeña un empleo público, particularmente estatal. Dicho esto, y ya que se trata de alguien que trabaja en y para una empresa, ¿Por qué nunca debería traducirse como Oficial, aun si la traducción es para México? Si no es mucha molestia, le agradecería mucho si pudiera usted explicarme un poco más al respecto. Gracias.

Asker: Muchas gracias.

agree  Adriana Martinez: Así lo habría traducido yo, y usaría funcionario -nunca oficial, si la traducción es para México.
