  • Anticipate and assess complex business, financial, operational, technology and compliance risks; use sound judgment and enterprise knowledge to recommend practical, risk-balanced solutions.
  • Partner effectively with independent auditors to coordinate audit scope, reliance strategy, timing, evidence expectations, and resolution of control matters.
  • Direct key initiatives that modernize audit practices, strengthen controls, improve issue management, and enhance audit insights through data, analytics, and continuous improvement.
  • Prepare and deliver clear, executive-ready reporting on audit results, control environment themes, remediation progress and risk implications for senior leadership and governance forums.
  • Other duties as needed/assigned.

Minimum Requirements:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • 10+ years of progressive internal audit, risk, controls, public accounting, or related experience, including significant leadership experience in audit management or enterprise controls.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead teams, influence senior stakeholders, and build trusted partnerships while maintaining independence and objectivity.
  • Strong understanding of internal controls, ICFR, risk-based audit methodology, control documentation, deficiency evaluation, and remediation practices.
  • Demonstrated experience leveraging audit technology, data analytics, automation, and continuous monitoring techniques to enhance audit effectiveness, improve risk identification, increase audit coverage, and drive more efficient assurance activities.
  • Executive presence with the ability to communicate complex audit, risk and control matters clearly, confidently, and concisely to senior leadership and governance audiences.
  • Proactive business orientation; ability to anticipate risk, drive accountability and recommend practical solutions that strengthen the control environment.

Preferred:
