Manage all phases of audit projects, including risk assessment, walkthroughs, control identification, testing, reporting, and remediation, ensuring timeliness and quality. Review audit testing artifacts (flowcharts, narratives, reports) to ensure accurate documentation of processes and controls. Prepare, review, and present clear and concise audit reports with findings, impact assessments, and actionable recommendations. Monitor and ensure timely remediation of SOX 404 control exceptions, providing quarterly status updates to executive management. Develop and deliver ongoing SOX 404 training to finance and IT process owners to strengthen accountability and effectiveness of internal controls. Support operational reviews, investigations, and management-requested assessments as needed. Assist with recruiting, onboarding, and developing Internal Audit team members. Partner with internal and external stakeholders to foster strong relationships and coordinate SOX activities effectively.
