About The Position

HubSpot's Risk and Internal Audit function is growing in scope and complexity. This Director role owns two of the function's most strategic portfolios: Enterprise Risk Management and IT SOX Risk Advisory, including the expansion of SOX coverage and transformation initiatives. In this role, you'll lead Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) facilitation across the business, own the risk advisory relationship with Engineering and Finance stakeholders, and provide director-level oversight of IT SOX readiness as HubSpot scales. You'll manage a team of risk professionals and serve as a key voice in executive reporting on technology risk.

• Deep IT SOX experience, including ITGC design, operating effectiveness testing, deficiency assessment, and external auditor coordination.
• Hands-on experience supporting SOX readiness for new systems, ERP implementations, or product features in a technology or SaaS environment.
• Track record of managing or mentoring teams in a high-volume, multi-stakeholder environment.
• Ability to translate technical IT and SOX observations into business risk language for non-technical executive audiences.
• Strong control design expertise with the ability to advise Engineering and Finance stakeholders before implementation, not just after.
• Comfortable managing ambiguity across concurrent, fast-moving workstreams.
• Collaborative approach that builds credibility with Engineering, Finance, Legal, and Product stakeholders while maintaining appropriate independence.
• Executive presence with the ability to deliver leadership updates on risk and advisory themes.
