Key Responsibilities
- Serve as the day-to-day point of contact for SOC 1 and SOC 2 examinations, coordinating evidence requests, walkthroughs, and testing with control owners and external auditors.
- Perform control testing across SOC 1/2 in-scope processes, flagging issues and escalating gaps or delays before they impact the examination timeline.
- Review evidence for completeness and audit-readiness before it goes to the auditors, flagging control gaps or exceptions early.
- Maintain and update the control matrix / narratives as processes, systems, or ownership change throughout the year.
- Support scoping conversations for new SOC engagements as the business adds products, systems, or subservice organizations.
- Perform SOX audit procedures end-to-end — planning, fieldwork, testing, and reporting — for assigned audits.
- Translate audit findings into clear business risk statements and recommend practical, risk-proportionate remediation.
- Follow up on agreed management action items and track remediation progress to closure.
- Execute SOX testing of key controls, documenting procedures, results, and conclusions in line with audit and PCAOB-adjacent standards.
- Support maintenance of the SOX control framework and flag design or documentation gaps as processes or systems change.
