About This Role

As the Manager, IT Audit at Biogen, you will play a pivotal role in strengthening our technology risk management, cybersecurity posture, and control environment.

This role offers an opportunity for professionals seeking to deepen technical audit judgment, gain broad business exposure, and build a foundation for future growth within Internal Audit or the life sciences industry.

What You'll Do:

  • Lead end-to-end IT, cybersecurity, cloud, SaaS, third-party, and integrated audits from planning through reporting and follow-up, with accountability for scope, execution quality, and results.
  • Apply a risk-based approach to identify key technology and cyber risks, evaluate control effectiveness, and adjust audit scope based on emerging issues and insights.

  • Contribute to departmental strategic initiatives and continuous improvement objectives: including methodology, technology enablement, talent development, and Audit Committee reporting, with opportunities to lead select workstreams.
  • Drive continuous improvement in audit execution, tools, and ways of working within assigned engagements and portfolios.

Who You Are:

You are a critical thinker who can navigate ambiguity and articulate technology and cyber risk clearly and effectively. You are comfortable engaging with senior stakeholders, managing difficult conversations, and challenging constructively. Your curiosity, adaptability, and self-motivation drive you to continuously improve how audit delivers value. You possess a strong understanding of IT General Controls, cybersecurity fundamentals, and leading frameworks (NIST, COBIT, ISO 27001, OWASP), with working knowledge of cloud, SaaS, and third-party technology risk.

Required Skills:

  • 5+ years of diversified internal and/or external IT audit, IT risk advisory, or cybersecurity audit experience (Big 4 experience preferred)
  • Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Cybersecurity, or a related field.
