A Day in the Life

We are looking for a Senior Auditor to join our Corporate Audit team. This role is ideal for an experienced audit professional who enjoys leading engagements, partnering with stakeholders, and adding value beyond compliance.
As a senior individual contributor, you’ll play a key role in executing and leading audit and advisory projects across the organization. You’ll work closely with audit leadership and collaborate with a global, diverse team while coaching and supporting the development of other auditors. If you’re someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, applies a risk-based mindset, and communicates with clarity and confidence, we’d love to connect.

Responsibilities may include the following and other duties may be assigned:

• Lead and execute audit engagements across the full audit lifecycle in line with professional standards and internal methodologies, applying a risk-based approach to planning and execution tailored to the business context.
• Independently perform audit work while reviewing and overseeing the work of other auditors as appropriate; identify control gaps and risks, assess root causes, and develop practical, value-added recommendations aligned with business objectives.
• Coordinate audit activities, manage timelines, and proactively communicate progress, risks, and issues to audit leadership while demonstrating strong knowledge of SOX 404, internal controls, testing strategies, and accounting principles.
• Plan and lead audit-related meetings, including kick-off, status, closing, and issue discussions, while preparing clear, concise, and well-structured audit deliverables and communications.
• Build trusted relationships with management and control owners, influence outcomes through objective analysis and effective communication, and collaborate across the global audit function, regions, and organizational levels.
• Coach and support team members on audit methodology, tools, and processes; provide timely, constructive feedback; and contribute to building audit capability and quality standards.
• Ensure audit documentation is complete, accurate, well-organized, and compliant with professional standards while managing multiple audit engagements simultaneously, applying practical project management skills, proactively anticipating risks, managing workload, communicating constraints early, and delivering high-quality results.

Required Knowledge and Experience:

• 5–7 years of experience in audit, finance, internal controls, or other relevant experience
• Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field
• Excellent interpersonal and English communication (verbal and written) skills
• Flexible and able to adapt to shifting priorities and responsibilities in a dynamic and changing environment

Professional certification such as CPA, CIA, CMA, or MBA, proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Visio, experience with SAP, Data Analytics tools and US GAAP are considered an advantage for this role.
