  • Serve as an advisor to SOX Champions on leading internal control practices, testing strategies, and remediation activities.
  • Assist with control deficiency evaluation and aggregation analysis and partner with SOX Champions to develop and monitor remediation plans.
  • Help drive the SOX AI transformation strategy by identifying high-value opportunities, implementing AI-enabled solutions, and driving adoption and new ways of working across the global SOX organization.
  • Lead and coach SOX team members, providing guidance and feedback to support high-quality execution and build capabilities in internal controls, technology, and emerging AI-enabled ways of working.
  • Maintain awareness of emerging SEC and PCAOB expectations and their impact on SOX compliance and internal controls.

The person:

You are a driven and results-oriented leader with proven experience in Sarbanes-Oxley compliance at a Big 4 accounting firm or Fortune 500 public company, ideally with exposure to manufacturing, SaaS, and/or life sciences. You are comfortable taking ownership of complex SOX activities, working hands-on, and leading and coaching others through project-based work. You thrive working across complex, diverse businesses and bring a strong commitment to continuous improvement. You are curious and forward-thinking, with an interest in leveraging AI, automation, and emerging technologies to challenge traditional ways of working. You are an exceptional communicator with the business acumen and executive presence to build relationships and influence senior management across a global organization.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
