This position will function at an IT SOX Manager level reporting to the Internal Audit Director. The core responsibility of this role is to assess IT general controls and application controls for design effectiveness and operating effectiveness. Beyond IT SOX testing, this role performs business process control testing and partners closely with Finance and Accounting — we're looking for someone who understands the financial reporting side of the controls they test, can work cross-functionally with accounting teams, and has the range to expand into operational audit work as the team's mandate grows.

As an IT SOX Manager you must have audit experience and the ability to interact with management at all levels. This position requires excellent communication skills as well as an understanding of COBIT, COSO, generally accepted accounting principles, and IT audit techniques.

• Scope systems into SOX control testing based on risk assessment, including new and migrating platforms.
• Create process narratives to map out financial reporting processes.
• Lead control walkthroughs and assess design effectiveness of controls.
• Develop control test procedures, inclusive of testing attributes.
• Test the operating effectiveness of IT general controls, application controls, entity-level controls, and business process controls.
• Review SOX control testing workpapers prepared by senior and staff auditors to ensure adequate documentation supports conclusions.
