• Present clear, concise insights on SOX progress, control effectiveness and key risks to senior management and the Audit Committee.
• Coach and develop team members through continuous feedback, technical guidance and training.
• Identify opportunities to simplify testing, improve data quality and increase the efficiency of the SOX compliance model through automation and digitalization.
• Provide guidance to process and control owners on evolving SOX, PCAOB and technology-control expectations.
• Oversee critical quarter-end self-certification activities and contribute to Internal Audit methodology and transformation initiatives.
• What makes this role different?
  • Visible impact: your work will directly support senior management and Audit Committee decision-making.
  • Global scope: you will work across businesses, technologies and geographies.
  • Room to shape the function: you will help improve the SOX model, methodology, analytics and ways of working.
  • Leadership and growth: you will develop people while continuing to deepen your own technical and business expertise.
